First False after Submit

[digitalmarks]

When I click ths submit button I get an error window that says First False Heres the code that has first false. Also what do I put in the place of
ENTRY HERE:


function orderSubmit(type)
{
if (type == 'order')
{if ( ! ( (document.order.order_type.checked) ||
checkRequired() ))

{ // checkCardNumber(); ENTRY HERE
alert('first true');
document.order.form_action.value = type;
document.order.submit();
return true;

}
else {
alert('first false');
return false;

}
}

Help,

Seems you neglected to post the entire function -- because you were missing one closing brace. The following is what your function, correctly formatted, would look like.
function orderSubmit(type)
{
if (type == 'order')
{
if( ! (document.order.order_type.checked || checkRequired()) )
{
// checkCardNumber(); ENTRY HERE
alert('first true');
document.order.form_action.value = type;
document.order.submit();
return true;
}
else {
alert('first false');
return false;
}
}
}
Otherwise, I can't answer any of your questions without a better explanation of what this is supposed to do for you. In addition to that, I can't even tell what the function is doing without some idea of how the function is called.

Heres the full Script. I am tring to make a shopping cart and this script is from the order.html page. I got the shopping cart script from HTMLGoodies.com 'So you want a shopping Cart' Tutorial. After pressing the Sumbit Button I get a First False Dialog Box, Help!

<script LANGUAGE="javascript">


index = 0;

function format(val, post)
{
var decpoint;
var begin;
var end;
var valstr;
var temp_char;

valstr = "" + val;
//alert('valstr = ' + valstr);
decpoint = valstr.indexOf(".")
if (decpoint != -1) {
//alert('decpoint = ' + decpoint);
begin = valstr.substring(0,decpoint);
end = valstr.substring(decpoint+1,valstr.length);
//alert('begin = ' + begin + '\nend= ' + end);
}
else {
begin = valstr;
end = "";
}
if (end.length < post)
{while (end.length < post)
{
end += "0";
}
}

end = end.substring(0,post);
//alert('begin = ' + begin + '\nend= ' + end);
return (begin+"."+end);
}


function orderSubmit(type)
{
if (type == 'order')
{if ( ! ( (document.order.order_type.checked) ||
checkRequired() ))

{ // checkCardNumber(); ENTRY HERE
alert('first true');
document.order.form_action.value = type;
document.order.submit();
return true;

}
else {
alert('first false');
return false;

}
}

}



var infowin = null;

I'm sorry, but that still doesn't answer my questions. You posted script, but none of that script is calling the original function posted. Although I would need to see your HTML in order to tell you more, it doesn't help to keep posting source -- which I don't wish to paw through. If you want further help, you better psot a live like to your page on the Internet so that I can see it in action. Even then, you'll have to tell me what you are inputing to the form before submitting.

I am going to regroup and make the links and get bet with you later.

thanks for the Help,
