I don't see where you are assiging a value to strCity. The value "Detroit" is
being assigned to strA, but that's not part of your If statement.

Nothing fancy, nothing complex. Just a little example to see how the syntax
works. As a test, I made a hard assignment for strCity, making it =
�Detroit�. On clicking the button, the first alert statement shows �
Detroit�, which obviously is correct. The second alert, in the IF
statement, shows the city as �Atlanta�, when I was expecting �Not Atlanta�.
Obviously, the problem is in the condition test, (strCity = �Atlanta�), but
I can�t see it. What on earth am I doing wrong?
