cross-posted here http://codingforums.com/showthread.php?threadid=6684

dont start a new thread so that others can follow the discussion. That way more people may be able to help you.

back to the topic at hand.
as i looked at your new code, the formula for wood had changed. so i had to change again the implemention.

here's the full code, just copy and paste it:

<html>

function calcFire(in1,in2,in3,out){
var num1 = parseInt(in1.value,10);
var num2 = parseInt(in2.value,10);
var num3 = parseInt(in3.value,10);
if (isNaN(num1) || num1<0){
alert("Please enter a positive number for field 1.");
in1.focus();
return;
}
if (isNaN(num2) || num2<0){
alert("Please enter a positive number for field 2.");
in2.focus();
return;
}
if (isNaN(num3) || num3<1){
alert("Please enter a non-zero positive number for field 3.");
in3.focus();
return;
}
out.value = (num1-num2)/num3;
}

function calcWood(in1,in2,out){
var num1 = parseInt(in1.value,10);
var num2 = parseInt(in2.value,10);
if (isNaN(num1) || num1<0){
alert("Please enter a positive number for field 1.");
in1.focus();
return;
}
if (isNaN(num2) || num2<0){
alert("Please enter a positive number for field 2.");
in2.focus();
return;
}
out.value = (num1-num2)/25;
}
</script>

i know u are just waiting to help me again Glenn. Here is your next task if you choose to accept it. The code you made for me is great. I just want to make a few additions. At the moment, the wood is worth 25 experience. I want to be able to choose from a drop down list, the kind of wood and when i choose the type of wood i want the value of its experience to change. Make up some names of wood and show me where to enter in its experience. Another thing, can i make it so that where it says "You have to cut <input name="woodoutput"> regular logs!", change regular to the name of the log when u select it in the dropdown? THX alot glenn (thaking in advance cuz i know u can help me) .

You want to include the error messages you received or aptly describe what you want to have modified so glenngv doesn't have to figure out everything on his own, don't you? ;)

Before I asked for glenngv's help (because I'm sure he's a busy man, and I know he's a smart one), I would attempt debugging it yourself.

"Time for more debugging Glenn." sounds more like a demand than a request for scripting help. ;)

I admit that I have kind of been a jerk, and I'm sry about that. Here's the deal, I never really got down the basics of JavaScript, so I cant really make anything usefull without almost the complete help of some1. That's pretty pathetic, I know. If anyone has a good suggestion of a tutorial site, then please post it here.

Sry again and Thank You in advance for the tutorial list

adios recommends www.webmonkey.com as for me i would say get a book like i did, i got my really good book for 4 bucks at a thrift shop, just look around

Actually, I'll second that webmonkey recommendation. Thau's javascript tutorial is an excellent start. Then you'll want to check out the tutorials on www.javascriptkit.com too.
