type mismatch error on function return

[stupy1]

Hi guys,

I'm getting a type mismatch error with the following function:

<script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;>

function checksubmit()
{
var doc = document.methods ;
if (doc.Total_Method_2004.value != 100 || doc.Total_Method_2005.value != 100 || doc.Total_Method_2006.value != 100)
{
alert (&quot;Method distributions must sum to 100%&quot;
return false;
}
else
{
if (doc.Total_all.value != doc.Target_all.value)
{ alert (&quot;All year totals must equal their target totals.&quot;
return false;
}
{
return true;
}
}
}
</script>

It's being called here:

<form name=&quot;methods&quot; method=&quot;post&quot; action=&quot;categories.asp&quot; onsubmit=&quot;return checksubmit()&quot;>

I'm able to get into the function and the first alert box &quot;Method Distributions....&quot; but then the error Type mismatch: 'return'

I have no clue what's going on and I have rewritten the function in vbscript and I get the same error. A varation of this function works on all my other pages so there might be a conflict somewhere within this page.

thanks,
stupy

in your if statement enclose your values in quotes, they are string values not numeric, so write...

if (doc.Total_Method_2004.value != &quot;100&quot; || doc.Total_Method_2005.value != &quot;100&quot; || doc.Total_Method_2006.value != &quot;100&quot
