Javascript newbie needs help with html form validation please

Hi

I am trying to write a simple script for html form validation before going on to write a more complicated script for the full form which will eventually be on the web page. However, I cannot tell if the javascript is executing or not, as no alert messages come up. If I fill in the form with blanks (which is what the function checkform() checks for) then it should display an alert on submission and return false. Otherwise, returns true.

I need to get this licked before going on to the more complex coding, but I really can't see why this doesn't appear to work. I'd be most grateful if some kind soul out there could have a look at it for me.... Links below.

Thank you in anticipation!

We need to see all the code. But for starters if statements are inclosed in parentheses and a compassion is done with == not =.
SO:
if document.assessmentform.phone=""

Should be:

if (document.assessmentform.phone == "" )

thanks for that! I knew that, don't know how I missed that one - I've made the change and am still no clearer as to what is happening, if you'd like me to post up sections of code I'm happy do so..

Your top link is broken. So yes code would be nice.

Hi sunfighter. Thanks to your help, and looking at it again I am now getting somewhere, so no worries for now - I will post again when I need help for the next, more complicated bit!
