Hi,

I learning javascript and now doing a simple validation however i'm coming across an issue. See code below

Html

Code:

<form name="loginsubmit" method="post" action="adproperties.html"></form>

Javascript

Code:

   <script>
   // this is for the login validation
   function loginvalidation()
   {
	if(document.loginsubmit.usernameform == '' );
	alert('Please enter your username');
	return false;
   }


   </script>

The issue that i'm having is when the username is submited with no text, the alert will appear, but even when I include text it still appears and doesn't go to the selected link.

Help would be appreciated.
