Vista - Java Script Syntax Problem

Do not program JScript or Java Script!

Here is my code:

<Script Language="JavaScript">

function ChangeRecord(){
var boolValid = true;
if (document.FormA.txtPassWordA <>
document.FormA.txtPassWordB)}
var incomplete = "PassWords Do Not Match,
Please Re-Enter";
alert(incomplete);
boolValid = false;}
}
</Script>

<Form Name="FormA">

<Input Type="PassWord" Name="txtPassWordA" Size="40"><br><br>
<Input Type="PassWord" Name="txtPassWordB" Size="40"><br><br>

<Input Type="Button" Value="Change Information" Name="B1"
OnClick="ChangeRecord();">

When I click on the Button, I get Error On Page.

What am I doing wrong.

My colleague entered this earlier, but under JScript. He did not get a
response as of this time.

Thanks

lack of understanding of JScript.

The typo is that the closing curly bracket on this line should be an
open curly bracket ...

if (document.FormA.txtPassWordA <> document.FormA.txtPassWordB)}

The syntax error is on the same line. The not equal operator in
JScript is !==, not <>. This is the same as in C, C++, Java, etc.

So, try this ...

<Script Language="JavaScript">

function ChangeRecord()
{
var boolValid = true;
if (document.FormA.txtPassWordA !== document.FormA.txtPassWordB)
{
var incomplete = "PassWords Do Not Match, Please Re-Enter";
alert(incomplete);
boolValid = false;
}
}

</Script>

I reformatted the layout a bit to make it more readable, I think.

BTW, why are you asking this question in a VBScript group?

I put it here because my associate put it in JScript this AM. He did not get
a response and I had trouble bringing JScript up.

Our district is off and on a military base, most of the software was written
in Assembler.

Why, I do not know, but it is very good, but very old.

Thanks for helping us out!

Tom;

Thanks for getting back to me, but it is better, but still not working. I
get the message that the password are not equal even if they are:

Current Code:

<Script Language="JavaScript">
function ChangeRecord(){

var boolValid=true;

if (document.forms.txtPasswordA !== document.forms.txtPasswordB)
{
var incomplete = "PassWords Do Not Match, Please Re-Enter!";
alert(incomplete);
boolValid = false;
}

if (boolValid==true)
{
document.FormA.action = "NewMemB.Asp";
document.FormA.submit();
}
}

</Script>

Password <Input Type="PassWord" Name="txtPasswordA" Size="10"
MaxLength="11"><%Response.Write Sp04%>
Retype Password<%Response.Write Sp04%><Input Type="PassWord"
Name="txtPasswordB" Size="10" MaxLength="11">

<Input Type="Button" Value="Update Information" Name="B3"
OnClick="ChangeRecord()">

Thanks Again

You need to tell Java that the field has a value.

Change to:

if (document.FormA.txtPasswordA.value != document.FormA.txtPasswordB.value)

I am sure it will work.

Good Luck
