Paul,
A couple more questions while I'm at it...
1) In VBS you can exit a function like this:
Function MyFunction()
If strMyVariable = "No" Then
Exit Function
End If
End Function
So, in JS it would be:
Function MyFunction()
{
If (strMyVariable == "No") {The exit function syntax goes here}
}
What would the syntax be for the exit function instruction.
2) In VBS, I can concatenate pieces into a string like:
strCity = "Atlanta"
strState = "Georgia"
strLocation = strCity & ", " & strState
What would the syntax be for the strLocation statement in JavaScript?
TIA,
Far

In JavaScript the single '=' is an assignment operator. Thus you are
assigning the value 'Atlanta' to your variable strCity.
To test for equality you should use the double as per '=='
function Validation()
{
strA = "Detroit";
alert (strCity);
if (strCity == "Atlanta") { alert ("Atlanta") }
else { alert ("Not Atlanta") }
}

I started to convert a simple VBS validation script to JavaScript, when I
came across a syntax problem that has me buffaloed. Consider the following
page:
<html>
<head>
<title>
Example_01
</title>
</head>
<body>
<form
name="frmForm"
action="Example_01_Redirect.asp"
method="post"
>
<Input
type="button"
name="cmdSubmit"
value="Send Request"
OnClick="Validation()"
>
<br>
<br>
City
<br>
<input
type="text"
size="15"
name="txtCity"
value=""
>
<br>
<br>
The Local Weather
<br>
<textarea
name="txtWeather"
rows="5"
cols="50"
value=""
></textarea>
<br>
<br>
Test 15
</form><!-- frmForm -->
</body>
</html>
<script
language="javascript"
>
function Validation()
{
strA = "Detroit"
alert (strCity)
if (strCity = "Atlanta") { alert ("Atlanta") }
else { alert ("Not Atlanta") }
}
</script>
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?
