Adding an if statement 1

[evr72]

Hello,

I inherited a web form and I am trying to make some changes. I am fairly new to programming and thus to JavaScript, I have been trying to modify a script that opens outlook and fills out the recipient, subject and email body. the idea is that the user revises the email before ending.

What I would like to add is an if statement so send to specific users if a specific field is picked

Here is what I have tried so far

original code

<script type=text/javascript>

function openoutlook()
{
  var S=document.form.company.value;
  var B=document.form.email.value;
  var M=document.form.csupdatedby.value;
  var A= <% = Cdbl((rsGuestbook("ID")))%>
  var url = '[URL unfurl="true"]http://mydomain.com/xx/view.asp?id='[/URL] + escape(A);

  
 self.location="mailto:mycustomlist@mydomain.com?subject=An New Entry Has Been Made To xx Form  "+A+" by "+M+" &body= Here is the link to the updated project  "+url;
}
</script>

Modified code

<script type=text/javascript>

function openoutlook()
{
  var S=document.form.company.value;
  var B=document.form.email.value;
  var M=document.form.csupdatedby.value;
  var A= <% = Cdbl((rsGuestbook("ID")))%>
  var url = '[URL unfurl="true"]http://mydomain.com/xx/view.asp?id='[/URL] + escape(A);

if (csupdatedby == 'customer service') {
     self.location="mailto:cs@mydomain.com?subject=An New Entry Has Been Made To xx Form  "+A+" by "+M+" &body= Here is the link to the updated project  "+url;}
else if (csupdatedby == 'production') {
     self.location="mailto:production@mydomain.com?subject=An New Entry Has Been Made To xx Form  "+A+" by "+M+" &body= Here is the link to the updated project  "+url;}
else if (csupdatedby == 'QC') {
     self.location="mailto:qc@mydomain.com?subject=An New Entry Has Been Made To xx Form  "+A+" by "+M+" &body= Here is the link to the updated project  "+url;}
else if (csupdatedby == 'Accounting') {
     self.location="mailto:Accounting@mydomain.com?subject=An New Entry Has Been Made To xx Form  "+A+" by "+M+" &body= Here is the link to the updated project  "+url;}

  

}
</script>

But this does not work, not sure where I am going wrong, any help is much appreciated!!

thanks!!

Do you get any errors?

At first glance there is no variable called csupdatedby, so nothing to check against for your If statements.

Perhaps you meant: "M", or at the very least document.form.csupdatedby.value

vacunita thousand thanks!!! that was a huge oversight, even for a non programmer person.

I made the correction and seems to be working well. I appreciate you taking the time to look at my code.

Again,

Than you!!!
