Broken function

[sorusty]

Hello!

I've been pulling my hair out and hope somebody can help.

This code snippet:

function read_form(a) {
if (!set_vars(a)){
return false; }
if ((!a.date1.value) || (!a.date2.value)) {
alert('Please enter start and end dates.');
a.date1.focus();
return false; }
a.arg0.value+='-e '+a.date1.value+'-'+a.date2.value';
if (a.pipe_flag.checked) {
a.arg9.value='-l'; }
if (a.int_flag.checked) {
a.arg9.value+=' -I'; }
if (a.demo_flag.checked) {
a.arg9.value+=' -N'; }
return true; }

doesn't work, and causes the other functions in the page not to work. If I comment out the above, everything else works fine.

Any thoughts would be welcome

Tx,
Feeling stupid

Since you did not post other code,its not easy to guess,however,if this code causes other code to not work then most certainly there are some variable/function names which are duplicate. Make sure you have unique names

I do not see any duplicates, but I am almost cross-eyed at this point.

I have attached the code for the whole page, perhaps that will enable someone to tell me what dumb thing I am doing.

Thanks.

I told you I was cross-eyed. That one quote cost me two hours.

Many thanks, Khalid.

My pleasure my friend

I honestly hate this.Some time I have noticed that I just have to have some one take a look and just show me the damn obvious error

Glad to be of any help
