The above is the value of var str value, returned by Database. So I use below code to split and put the values back to the form. but it does not work.
The alert displays right value( Last_Name=Grover ), but if I try to open the comments of for loop OR s = nameVal[0].split("="); the function never called at all.... I am not bothered about switch function fo rnow. Can anybody help me. I am new to JavaScript. I try to reply asap for any query. thank you.


var nameVal = new Array();
nameVal = str.split("`");
var s = new Array();
//for( int i=0; i<nameVal.length; i++) {
// s = nameVal[0].spilt("=");
alert( nameVal[1] + " "+nameVal.length);

/*switch (s[0]) {
case "Province" : //document.forms.Province.selectedIndex = s[1];
break;
case "Session_Week" : //document.forms.Session_Week.selectedIndex = s[1];
break;
case "Sessions_Purchased" : //document.forms.Sessions_Purchased.selectedIndex = s[1];
break;
case "Days_Time_Preferred" : //document.forms.Province.selectedIndex = s[1];
break;
case "Height" : //document.forms.Height.selectedIndex = s[1];
break;
case "Weight" : //document.forms.Weight.selectedIndex = s[1];
break;
case "Howlong" : //document.forms.Howlong.selectedIndex = s[1];
break;
case "Co_Ordi" : //document.forms.Co_Ordi.selectedIndex = s[1];
break;
case "Sessions_Left" : //document.forms.Province.selectedIndex = s[1];
break;
case "Body_Fat" : //document.forms.Body_Fat.selectedIndex = s[1];
break;
default: document.getElementsByName(s[0])[0].value=s[1];
}*/

The whole code is in the following function, called when the fprm is loaded with onload event.

function init(str) {
....
....
.... all the code.
....
....
....

}

Hi everyone,
replacing int in the for loop with var solved the problem. also the split works and the function is being called.

now trying for the switch case problem. if anyone has the idea of if case value can be string.... early response is appreciated. thank you. let u know if I am able to solve it.

bye

Switch("asdf") {

case "asdf" :

break;

}

the switch case also works fine
