I am having difficulty getting the family size option working with this script. It is intended to calculate the % above or below the federal poverty line for use in our non-profit law firm
the math is as follows.

form.monthly.value = (form.monthly_income.value*12/(5840+(3140*(form.family_size)))*100;

I don't know alot about java so thanks in advance for any help you may provide

here is the entire thing.
