[nitindel]

Hi All,
I am working on ASP , VBScript and Javascript.
I am making a grid in ASP VBScript..and eneter checkboxes in one column......

The problem is that if there is one record in the grid it is showing as :

Even If the record is selected ,the alert is like(Please select the record to edit or delete)...

Below is the javascript code that i am using on Button click

[Code]:
function Edit()
{
var ctr=0;
for (i=0;i<document .managecontribu tion.checkmanag e.length;++i )
{
if (document.manag econtribution.c heckmanage[i].checked)
{
ctr=ctr+1;

}

}

[Code]


Also i am using the Html "Submit" type not the "button" type


Thanks in Advance

What are you doing to ctr afterwards?
is it this....

if (!ctr) alert('Please select the record to edit or delete');

You won't get any better answers by repeating the question..

[nitindel]

No...
i am doing like this:-



if (ctr<=0)
{
alert('Please Check the story to edit');
return false;
}
else if (ctr>1)
{
alert('Please Check only one story to edit');
return false;
}

[hsriat]

No...
i am doing like this:-



if (ctr<=0)
{
alert('Please Check the story to edit');
return false;
}
else if (ctr>1)
{
alert('Please Check only one story to edit');
return false;
}

What about if (ctr == 1)?
use else instead of else if (ctr>1)...

[nitindel]

in the else part i am redirecting to another page like this:

else
{
document.manage contribution.ac tion = "addcontributio n.asp?action=Ed it";

}

[hsriat]

in the else part i am redirecting to another page like this:

else
{
document.manage contribution.ac tion = "addcontributio n.asp?action=Ed it";

}

oh! I'm sorry.. i didn't read the last line...

But, where's the problem....?
Paste the full code... may be then I cud find the solution..

Hi ...
Here is the Full Javascript code.......

[code=javascript]function Edit()
{
var ctr=0;

for (i=0;i<document .managecontribu tion.checkmanag e.length;++i)
{
if(document.man agecontribution .checkmanage[i].checked)
{
ctr=ctr+1;
}

}
if (ctr<=0)
{
alert('Please Check the story to edit');
return false;
}
else if (ctr>1)
{
alert('Please Check only one story to edit');
return false;
}
else
{
document.manage contribution.ac tion = "addcontributio n.asp?action=Ed it";


}

}[/code]





and it is called as :

<input name="submit" type="submit" class="buttons" onclick="javasc ript:return Edit()" value="Edit" />



I once again repeat the problem.....

I make the grid Dynamicaally in ASP using VBScript.......

and then clicking on the checkbox and then ob edit button redirects to another page with that corresponding record details ......

i have an alert that please select one story at a time.....

and a required alert as that "Please select the Story to Edit"


Now if i have more than one record in the grid...it is working fine....

But when only one row is populated...in the grid...it throws error...
"Please select the story to Edit" even if i have selected the checkbox(Story) to edit.....

Please let me know what possible error can it be...

Tonite i have to complete this module......
Thanks a lottttttttttttt ttttttttttt in advance....

BTW, why are you using Checkbox if you have to allow user to select one of the stories at a time?..
Use radio buttons...
[CODE=javascript]function Edit()
{
var ctr=0;

for (i=0;i<document .managecontribu tion.checkmanag e.length;++i) {
if(document.man agecontribution .checkmanage[i].checked) {
ctr++;
}
}
if (ctr<=0) {
alert('Please Check the story to edit');
return false;
}
else if (ctr>1) {
alert('Please Check only one story to edit');
return false;
}
else {
document.manage contribution.ac tion = "addcontributio n.asp?action=Ed it";
return true;
}
}[/CODE]

nitindel, the proper way to use code tags is as follows:

&#91;CODE=javas cript]
Your JavaScript code here

PS. glad to see that you've got it working.
