Forms Services 2007 - detecting changes at the client

I'm developing a form and would like to be able to enable or show a button
after all of the required fields have been filled out.  It does fine the
first time through if I'm looking just for the data being blank but a user
may come back and change one item and I'd like, at that time, to re-enable
the submit button.  It doesn't appear that conditional formatting can detect
a 'change' in the data--specifically if using Forms Services.  

I tried doing this in managed code but failed because I forgot that, under
Form Services, this is a web application and most changes don't force a
postback unless you select 'always' on the Properties->Browser tab for each
control, and then sometimes it still doesn't do it.

Am I missing something here?  Is there a better way to do what I'm talking
about.  Thanks in advance for any help or direction.

If you set the 'Always Postback' on the fields and not on the button, the
conditional formatting should kick in.
