What am I doing wrong? I must just not know enough!

This web page is just supposed to check to see if all the boxes are checked. If so then it will load the web page "finished.htm" if any are unchecked then it will show an alert box saying "You need to do more school work."

It does not work.

Why?

Here is the html:



<html>

<head>
<title>School Checklist</title>
<meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 3.0">
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--

function getAdditionalValue(gp)
{
if (gp.C1.checked == true)
open('finished.htm', "","menubar,status,height=100,width=440,scrollbars,resizable,top=15,left=140")

if (gp.C2.checked == false)
{
alert ("You need to do more school work!")
}

return
}


//-->

</script>
</head>

<body>

delete everything between the <script type="text/javascript"> </script> tags

and add this function in between the script tags


function checkform(gp){
var cboxes = gp.C1;
for (n = 0;n<cboxes.length;n++){
if (cboxes[n].checked == false){
cboxes[n].focus()
alert ("You need to do more school work!");
return false;
}
}
window.open('finished.htm', ""," menubar,status,height=100,width=440,scrollbars,resizable,top=15,left=140");
}


the line window.open should be 1 straight line.

cheers
