if.. else if sentence

[Obscurr]

hi,
I got a problem with a standard if... else if sentence. Each one works
alone, (ie. putting a /*..*/ around one of the conditions)but by
combining them, only the first one triggers. The code :

function sjekk()
{
if (window.document.info.organisasjon.value =='')
{
alert('hey!');
return(false);
}
else {
if (window.document.info.check_feste.checked == false)
{
var answer = confirm('Continue?');
if (answer) {
return (true);
}
else {
return(false);
}
}
}
}

Use alert("I am here!") in different places and see if the satement is
reached.
It is the very old timers approach, but always works.

If a certain line is not reached allthough you expected it to be reached,
you know where to start debugging.

Hope that helps.

This doesn't address your problem directly, but it might
help if you simplify your code:

if (window.document.info.check_feste.checked == false)
{
var answer = confirm('Continue?');
if (answer) {
return (true);
}
else {
return(false);
}
}

can be written as:

if (!window.document.info.check_feste.checked)
{
return(confirm('Continue?'));
}

In the original code if "window.document.info.organisasjon.value !=
''" and "window.document.info.check_feste.checked == true" nothing is
returned.

Try:

function sjekk()
{
var answer = false;
if (window.document.info.organisasjon.value =='')
{
alert('hey!');
}
else
{
if (window.document.info.check_feste.checked == false)
{
answer = confirm('Continue?');
}
}

return answer;
}
