Hi,
My javascript test is testing supposedly numerical values as strings, when
they should be compared by actual value.
Javascript function:
--------------------------
if (bid.previousbid.value > bid.nextbid.value ) {
alert("Please enter a bid greater than $" + bid.previousbid.value + ".");
return false;
} else {
document.bid.submit();
return true;
}
Form Data:
--------------------------
Initial Bid: <input type="hidden" name="previousbid"
value=<%=RS.fields.item("LatestBid").value%>>
Minimum Bid: <input name="nextbid" type="text"
value=<%=RS.fields.item("LatestBid").value+1%> size="4">
Sample test:
--------------------------
Initial Bid: $ 5
Minimum Bid: $ 10
Error Message
--------------------------
Please enter a bid greater than $5.
(... I did.)
Is there a way I can cast values in javascript?
