cannot EDIT validation without causing error

cannot EDIT validation without causing error

So I have some validation on a page. specifically the checkout page in ecart.

so its working fine.
but i have 1 field that is a select menu and I want to add that as a required item.

when i go to the validation tool to edit, I get 2 kinds of errors.
1. if i go to edit and dont add any new validation, then when i hit finish - it rewrites the code except refers to every validation rule to one field. (it changes them all to the email field).

i also tried editing and adding the new field to the validation and i get the same error. I just tested it without adding new validation to see if it was the new rule or not.



2. I created a test page with a select field on it and added validation. worked fine. so i copied that code over to my current working checkout page (current unedited validation works). adding the 1 line of code caused the form to not validate at all. and I did put it in the correct place. Unless there is a sequences where selects has to go for validation.


ANY HELP!? DO YOU SEE MY ERROR? WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?!

HERES THE LINE I ADDED (just before the alert errors code)
WAValidateRQ(document.forms[0].order_hear,'- Agree to terms is required',document.forms[0].order_hear,0,true,'select');
