JavaScript: alert only working on Safari! Why?

newbe123 · December 18, 2010

My problem is that this only works on Safari and not IE, FF!?

JavaScript (alert only works on Safari!)

function validate()
{	
var returnValue = true;

var name = frmInput.txtName.value;
var key = frmInput.txtKey.value;	
var sex0 = frmInput.radSex[0].checked;
var sex1 = frmInput.radSex[1].checked;
var age = frmInput.selAge.selectedIndex;	


if (name.length == 0)
{
	alert("Enter name"); // not working
	frmInput.txtName.focus();
	return false;
	}


if (key != "123")
{
	alert("Wrong password!");    //not working
	frmInput.txtKey.focus();
	return false;
}	


if (!sex0 && !sex1)
{
	alert("Enter gender!");   //not working
	frmInput.txtKey.focus();
	return false;
}


if (age == 0)
{
	alert("Enter age range");    // not working
	frmInput.txtKey.focus();
	return false;
}

return true;


}

I didn't look too deeply at your code, but it may have something to do with this:

<script src="validate.js" type="text/JavaScript">

it should be this:

<script src="validate.js" type="text/javascript">
