Can anyone help with this?

I want to resize the window if the variable isvertical is true

It resizes anyway, even if it is false?

Any ideas?







var isvertical = false;









function clickoncolor (event, color)
{
document.getElementById('note').src = color;
if (window.widget)
{
widget.setPreferenceForKey(color, createkey("color"));
}
positioncheck (color);

isvertical = "false"

}

function clickoncolorvertical (event, color)
{
document.getElementById('note').src = color;
if (window.widget)
{
widget.setPreferenceForKey(color, createkey("color"));
}
positioncheck (color);


isvertical = "true"


}



function doneMouseUp(event)



if (isvertical = true);
{

window.resizeTo (100, 600);

}

}

yeah....

= != ==

get it?

You should put that in [ code ] tags so it's easier to read.

It should be isvertical = true; instead of "true" as the former is the boolean and the latter a string.

You can then use if (isvertical). To see if it is false, use if (!isvertical).

Good catch, I didn't notice that.

I was referring to the fact that he is using the assignment operator rather than the equality operator in the following:

Code:
if (isvertical = true);
{
   window.resizeTo (100, 600);
}

That will ALWAYS evaluate to true....

He should have used:

Code:
if (isvertical == true)
{
   window.resizeTo (100, 600);
}

edit: removed erroneous semicolon

Thanks both of you, Im still having problems with the If statement always coming out true - the window always resizes (even if I set it to false immediately before!) Hope you can help!

Code:

var isvertical = false;


function doneMouseUp(event)

		 isvertical = false;


			if (isvertical == true);
	{
					window.resizeTo (100, 600);
	}


}

remove the semi colon from after the if statement (sorry I didn't notice that one earlier)

Thanks, it works now!
