tried to fix it with with the refresh() function but i dont know whats wrong i if u knowq what to do to make the guess button submit only five times please let me know. Basically what i want it to do is when u click the guess button five times an alert appears and says u have run out of guesses then the page reloads.
heres the JS-

<SCRIPT language=JavaScript>
<!-- Begin
var js_mult1=3141
var js_mult2=5821
var js_m1=100000000
var js_m2=10000
var js_iseed=0
var js_iseed1=0
var js_iseed2=0
function random() {
if (js_iseed == 0) {
now = new Date()
js_iseed = now.getHours() + now.getMinutes() * 60 + now.getSeconds() * 3600
}
js_iseed1 = js_iseed / js_m2
js_iseed2 = js_iseed % js_m2
var tmp = (((js_iseed2 * js_mult1 + js_iseed1 * js_mult2) % js_m2) *
js_m2 + (js_iseed2 * js_mult2)) % js_m1
js_iseed = (tmp + 1) % js_m1
return (Math.floor((js_iseed/js_m1) * 100))
}
var nGuesses = 0
function GuessNum() {
var response
var num = parseInt(document.forms[0].guess.value)
document.forms[0].guess.value = num
nGuesses++
response = ""
if (num < myNumber) response = response + "Higher!"
if (num > myNumber) response = response + "Lower!"
if (num == myNumber) {
respone = "Correct!";
alert ("Winner!! Congrats Click ok For your prize...")
alert ("CzoneName: PW:")
alert ("Remember only one prize per week....");
}
document.forms[1].result.value=response
document.forms[1].guesses.value=nGuesses
document.forms[0].guess.focus()
document.forms[0].guess.select()
return true
}
function GiveUp() {
var response
nGuesses = 0
alert("Try it again you'll get it....")
alert("Eventually????") ;
}
function refresh()
{
if (nGuesses<="5")
{GuessNum()
return true
}
else
{alert('You have run out of chances'); window.location="http://www.freewebs.com/ctp/guess.htm"}
}

Okay the first problem was you had some syntax errors like </SCRIPT> twice.

So then once I actually had it working you were calling the script twice so things were going up by 2 rather than one. So I reorganised a few things and changed the code a tad, but this now works :thumbsup:

var js_iseed1=0;
var js_iseed2=0;

function random() {
if (js_iseed == 0) {
now = new Date()
js_iseed = now.getHours() + now.getMinutes() * 60 + now.getSeconds() * 3600
}
js_iseed1 = js_iseed / js_m2
js_iseed2 = js_iseed % js_m2
var tmp = (((js_iseed2 * js_mult1 + js_iseed1 * js_mult2) % js_m2) *
js_m2 + (js_iseed2 * js_mult2)) % js_m1
js_iseed = (tmp + 1) % js_m1
return (Math.floor((js_iseed/js_m1) * 100));
}

var nGuesses = 0;

function GuessNum() {

var num = parseInt(document.forms[0].guess.value)
document.forms[0].guess.value = num
nGuesses++
response = ""

Hope this helps, and just to make things easier to read, could you use [ code ] [/ code ] (without the spaces) tags to wrap your code. :thumbsup:

:D hey thanks a mil i see u added ur own js file :eek: on there to make it work, the only thing that wasnt added was the refreshing of the page. When it gets to the fifth submission and the alert pops up what should i add so the the page reloads or refresh.
Hey thanks again :thumbsup:

Nah It's all there. The problem that was happening was you were calling the GuessNum and REfresh when the button was presses but your refresh was also calling GuessNum. So I altered the Refresh to only move to a new location, and added the call from the end of GuessNum.

Try it out and see if it works. When the user presses the button the 5th time, the page tells him higher/lower/correct and then automatically refreshes the page.

Yeah that's a simple one, I should have said change the window.location argument to be the page you want it to be. Currently it's pointing to a file on my computer, and really I should have switched it back to what you originally posted, but I forgot, sorry :o

Changing that should make it work fine :thumbsup:
