function confirmedok()
{
	if (!(submit_form==false));
	{
		document.form.TK.value=document.form.TK.value;
		check(document.form);
	}
}

I keep getting the error 'submit_form' is undefined

Does var submit_form not define it?

If you declare a variable with a var keyword inside a function, it is a local variable. Meaning, only the function can access it. If you want other functions to access it, make it global by declaring it outside the function.

.....
		var submit_form=true;
....
		var submit_form=false;

.....

function confirmedok()
{
	if (submit_form==true);
	{
		document.form.TK.value=document.form.TK.value;
		check(document.form);
	}
}

This successfully sets the variable to true/false. But i still get the error?

How do i only do this code

document.form.TK.value=document.form.TK.value;
		check(document.form);

when this variable = true

var submit_form=true;

Can i not reference a variable from another function in another function?

Heres my page:

<script language="javascript">
function checkBirthday(obj) {
	if( !/^(\d{1,2})(\d{1,2})(\d{4})$/.test(obj.value) ) {
		alert( "Invalid date supplied - must be format DDMMYYYY" );
		obj.focus();
		return;
	}
		
	var d = new Date();
	var d2 = new Date(RegExp.$3, RegExp.$2, RegExp.$1);
		
	var diff = d.getDiff(d2, "y")
	if( isNaN(diff) ) {
		alert( "Invalid date supplied" );
	}
	else if( diff < 2 )
	{
		alert( "This IS an INFANT \n they are younger that 2" );
		var infant=true;
		var submit_form=true;
		alert(submit_form);
	}
	else if( diff > 2 )
	{
		alert( "This is NOT an INFANT \n they are older that 2" );
		var infant=false;
		var submit_form=false;
		alert(submit_form);
		
	}
	

}

function confirmedok()
{
alert ("confirmedok");
	if (submit_form==true);
	{
		document.form.TK.value=document.form.TK.value;
		check(document.form);
	}
}
</script>
<img src="images/confirm.gif" onclick="javascript: checkBirthday(document.form.birthday); confirmedok();">

[crmpicco]

function confirmedok()
{
alert ("confirmedok");
alert (submit_form);
	if (submit_form==true);
	{
	alert("286! Submit Form = true")
		document.form.TK.value=document.form.TK.value;
		check(document.form);
	}

}

when submit_form = false it still runs through the 'true' if statement?

[crmpicco]

the fix:

function confirmedok()
{
alert ("confirmedok");
alert (submit_form);
	if (submit_form==true)
	{
	alert("286! Submit Form = true")
		document.form.TK.value=document.form.TK.value;
		check(document.form);
	}
	else 
	{
	alert("293 falsch")
	document.form.date.focus();
	}

}

what do you mean with
document.form.TK.value=document.form.TK.value; ?

Maybe I can't see something, or don't know something, but I think this is completely meaningless statement.
