almost got it but not quite

[Raven]

the part of the code below in red I know is wrong.. I was thinking last night that I simply can't say see this .gif so I put the .gifs on seperate pages.. now how do I code .. when you calculate the day of birth (DOB) open up the page that matches the DOB in target frame I1.. instead of simply writing text in the pop up window.. know what I mean? I want the code to take the user to the page that corrosponds to the DOB calculated.
do I need a seperate function? to say when this happens open this page? I am not sure how to code it.. I have named all of the pages in all lower case too (sunday, monday etc)
I hate to be a bugger but I need specifically where to put what text, I am just learning .. please and tank you!

ok I have re worked it to have this script in place of the red



if (theday = 1) href= "http://www.ecdollz.com/sunday.htm";
if (theday = 2) href= "http://www.ecdollz.com/monday.htm";
if (theday = 3) href= "http://www.ecdollz.com/tuesday.htm";
if (theday = 4) href= "http://www.ecdollz.com/wednesday.htm";
if (theday = 5) href= "http://www.ecdollz.com/thursday.htm";
if (theday = 6) href= "http://www.ecdollz.com/friday.htm";
if (theday = 7) href= "http://www.ecdollz.com/saturday.htm";

now I do not get any error messages but it still doesn't open the page upon calculate... am I on the right track?

Your syntax is incorrect at the least:


if (theday = 1)


should be:



if (theday == 1)



Checking for equality in JS is *2* = signs. :) A single equal sign is an assignment.

Try that.
