@fredmvJan 29.2004 — Welcome to the forums.

Taking that line out or commenting it out would get rid of it...

@herbdauthorJan 30.2004 — no commenting it out didnt work.

our code ended up a lil different,

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">

var count = *3*;

function Checksubmit (e)

{

*//*alert('you have ' + (3 - count) + ' votes left ');

if(e.checked == true)

{

count*++*;

e.checked = *false*;

}

else

{

count*--*;

e.checked = *true*;

}

if(count == *0*)

document.form1.submit.disabled = *true*;

else

document.form1.submit.disabled = *false*;

}

</script>


our coder mixed up the trues and falses, but the part that we didnt look at was where the var number started and ended, we were asking it to add a number to 0 and at the same time telling it to subtract from 3. so the counting on the alert was REALLY messed up, and then once it got to 3 wich it didnt because taking away from 0 wont get to 3, we wanted out sumbit button to become active.

thanx for you help

@fredmvJan 31.2004 — That's because you aren't using a valid comment. JavaScript supports C++-style ([font=courier]//[/font]) and C-style ([font=courier]/* */[/font]) comments. The one you're using right now simply isn't valid, which is why it isn't working. And what's with all those random asterisks? That would also prevent it from working...
