if.. else if sentence

[Obscurr]

hi,
I got a problem with a standard if... else if sentence. Each one works
alone, (ie. putting a /*..*/ around one of the conditions)but by
combining them, only the first one triggers. The code :

function sjekk()
{
if (window.documen t.info.organisa sjon.value =='')
{
alert('hey!');
return(false);
}
else {
if (window.documen t.info.check_fe ste.checked == false)
{
var answer = confirm('Contin ue?');
if (answer) {
return (true);
}
else {
return(false);
}
}
}
}

Use alert("I am here!") in different places and see if the satement is
reached.
It is the very old timers approach, but always works.

If a certain line is not reached allthough you expected it to be reached,
you know where to start debugging.

Hope that helps.

This doesn't address your problem directly, but it might
help if you simplify your code:

can be written as:

if (!window.docume nt.info.check_f este.checked)
{
return(confirm( 'Continue?'));
}

Re: if.. else if sentence

In the original code if "window.documen t.info.organisa sjon.value !=
''" and "window.documen t.info.check_fe ste.checked == true" nothing is
returned.

Try:

function sjekk()
{
var answer = false;
if (window.documen t.info.organisa sjon.value =='')
{
alert('hey!');
}
else
{
if (window.documen t.info.check_fe ste.checked == false)
{
answer = confirm('Contin ue?');
}
}

return answer;
}
