checkbox onclick validation

[gwilym40]

I have a asp form with a checkbox defined as below

<font face=&quot;Arial&quot;>Copy from Applicant details<INPUT TYPE=&quot;checkbox&quot; NAME=&quot;applicant_details&quot; value=&quot;YES&quot; onclick=&quot;return passvalues();&quot; SIZE=&quot;30&quot;><font face=&quot;Arial&quot; color=red>

The function passvalues() is defined as

function passvalues()
{
If (document.HouseApp2.applicant_details.checked)
{
alert(&quot;yes&quot
}
alert(&quot;no&quot
}

When running it I keep getting an error saying object expected line 12 (which is the If statement line)

any ideas much appreciated

Tony

firstly, the if statement should not be using a capital I
secondly the alert statements need semicolons after them
thirdly you will need a return statement after alerrt(&quot;yes&quot
or it will display both messages when the box is checked.

try this code:
function passvalues()
{
if(document.HouseApp2.applicant_details.checked)
{
alert(&quot;yes&quot;
return;
}
alert(&quot;no&quot;
}
