Set the property required at checkbox in bootstrap

I have a simple form with a text-input and two checkbox and I need to set the property "required" at checkbox (I need that at least one of that checkbox is checked).

<div class="control-group">
    <label class="control-label" for="inputEmail"><?= $this->labelfieldEmail; ?></label>
    <div class="controls">
        <input type="text" name="email" id="emailField"
        placeholder="Email" required>
    </div>
</div>

<div class="control-group">
    <label class="control-label" for="productField"><?= $this->labelfieldProduct; ?></label>
    <div class="controls" >
        <input type="checkbox" id="inlineCheckbox1" value="widget" name="product[]" <?php if ($this->selectedProduct == "widget") { echo "checked"; }?>/> 
        Widget for website
        <br/>
        <input type="checkbox" id="inlineCheckbox2" value="app" name="product[]" <?php if ($this->selectedProduct == "app") { echo "checked"; }?>/> 
        App mobile
    </div>
</div>

Please, Any suggests?

EDIT

I tried to use jqBootstrapValidation library in the follow way, but it doesn't works: 1. add library 2. Add this into <head> tag:

<script>
$(function () { 
    $("input,select,textarea").not("[type=submit]").jqBootstrapValidation(); 
});
</script>

3 this is my form code:

<form class="form-horizontal" method="POST" action="<?= $this->baseUrl($this->pathBusinessThankyou);?>">
    <div class="row-fluid">

        <div class="row-fluid">
            <br />
            <div class="control-group">
                <label class="control-label" for="inputName"><?= $this->labelfieldName; ?></label>
                <div class="controls">

You are trying to run a validation with php while the page has already been loaded. For the validation to work each time you check another box, a script needs to run again to perform the validation. This is much easier to achieve with a jQuery script that executes each time a checkbox is clicked.
