need help with case statement

I saw it once before, but cant find it again, but I am looking for information on how to use the "case" statement to control the value of other variables and functions. Any direction you guys can send me to get help with this will be appreciated.

Are you talking about something like:

var myText = "THIS IS ALL UPPERCASE, FOR NOW!"
var changed = myText.toLowerCase();

In the above example, the myText variable will be converted to lowercase. So if you went:

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
document.write(changed);
</script>

The result would be:

this is all uppercase, for now!

Or am I completely off base and misunderstanding what you're asking?

Try devguru:

check out the site, it's very usefull.

I think he means case as in unix scripts.

yeah, it was the switch statement I was looking for (feels dumb now) anyways, that was a good site, now I just gotta get it working the way I want it to. Thanx
