Hiroki Paranoid (IV) Inmate From: NZ Insane since: Dec 2002	posted 08-11-2003 01:27 Hi, guys. Can I ask this as well? I made this script last week. I was pretty happy about it until I found horrible error about null value entity. My exercise was: quote: User can buy three different types of tickets. Standard is $50. Clsoe up is $70. And back stage is $250. User can choose ticket type through dropdown box. Problem is: It works only when user put number of ticket into all three boxes. Otherwise total box shows just Null!!! I don't know why this happens.....Could you give me tips, please??? Here is my code: code: <html> <head> <script type="text/javascript"> function cal(){ if(parseInt(form1.sta.value)<0){ alert("Re-enter, pleaes"); return false; } if(parseInt(form1.clo.value)<0){ alert("Re-enter, pleaes"); return false; } if(parseInt(form1.bac.value)<0){ alert("Re-enter, pleaes"); return false; } switch(form1.type.selectedIndex){ case 0: form1.sub1.value=parseInt(form1.sta.value)50; break case 1: form1.sub1.value=parseInt(form1.sta.value)70; break case 2: form1.sub1.value=parseInt(form1.sta.value)250; break } switch(form1.type1.selectedIndex){ case 0: form1.sub2.value=parseInt(form1.clo.value)50; break case 1: form1.sub2.value=parseInt(form1.clo.value)70; break case 2: form1.sub2.value=parseInt(form1.clo.value)250; break } switch(form1.type2.selectedIndex){ case 0: form1.sub3.value=parseInt(form1.bac.value)50; break case 1: form1.sub3.value=parseInt(form1.bac.value)70; break case 2: form1.sub3.value=parseInt(form1.bac.value)250; break } form1.total.value=parseInt(form1.sub1.value)+parseInt(form1.sub2.value)+parseInt(form1.sub3.value); if(parseInt(form1.total.value) > 1000){ form1.total.value=parseInt(form1.total.value)0.9+5 }else if(parseInt(form1.total.value) > 500){ form1.total.value=parseInt(form1.total.value)*0.95+5 }else{ form1.total.value=parseInt(form1.total.value)+5 } } </script> </head> <body> <form name="form1"> <select name="type"> <option>Standard</option> <option>Clse-Up</option> <option>Back Stage</option> </select> <input type="text" name="sta" size="3"/> $<input type="text" name="sub1" size="5" /><br /> <select name="type1"> <option>Standard</option> <option>Clse-Up</option> <option>Back Stage</option> </select> <input type="text" name="clo" size="3"/> $<input type="text" name="sub2" size="5" /><br /> <select name="type2"> <option>Standard</option> <option>Clse-Up</option> <option>Back Stage</option> </select> <input type="text" name="bac" size="3"/> $<input type="text" name="sub3" size="5" /><br /> <p><input type="button" value="Calculate" onClick="cal()"/> <input type="reset" value="Reset" /></p> <p>Total cost is: $<input type="text" name="total" size="8"/></p> </form> </body> </html> thanks for reading this.

rickindy Nervous Wreck (II) Inmate From: Indianapolis, In USA Insane since: Jan 2002	posted 08-11-2003 15:34 RTFM would probably help, but here's another hint. Get the value of each field you are checking using parseInt just like you are. Show that value in an an alert. It should show you where your error is. Remember that null and zero are't the same thing. Few problems in life can't be solved by chocolate

Hi, guys. Can I ask this as well?
I made this script last week. I was pretty happy about it until I found horrible error about null value entity.

My exercise was:

quote:
User can buy three different types of tickets. Standard is $50. Clsoe up is $70. And back stage is $250. User can choose ticket type through dropdown box.

Problem is:

It works only when user put number of ticket into *all* three boxes. Otherwise total box shows just Null!!! I don't know why this happens.....Could you give me tips, please???

Here is my code:

code:

<html>

<head>

<script type="text/javascript">

  function cal(){

   

             if(parseInt(form1.sta.value)<0){ 



                           alert("Re-enter, pleaes");

                           return false;



                           }





           if(parseInt(form1.clo.value)<0){ 



                           alert("Re-enter, pleaes");

                           return false;



                           }





         if(parseInt(form1.bac.value)<0){ 



                           alert("Re-enter, pleaes");

                           return false;



                           }



                switch(form1.type.selectedIndex){

                          }else{
