Alert message if empty value???

[meztec]

My code for this is below:
Question:
I have a form button...onclick it does function validate...
if agree1 and question 1 are empty it should alert the message...
else it should do check.
However, during my testing it's not doing the alert if these strings
are empty.

Are my empty strings correct?

=====================================

<script language="javascript">

function validate(){

//Declare Variables
agree1 = document.form.agree1.checked;
agree2 = document.form.agree2.checked;
agree3 = document.form.agree3.checked;
agree4 = document.form.agree4.checked;
question1 = document.form.question1.checked;

if((agree1 == ' ') && (question1 == ' '))
{
alert("sucks");
}
else
{
check();
}
}


function check(){

//Declare Variables
agree1 = document.form.agree1.checked;
agree2 = document.form.agree2.checked;
agree3 = document.form.agree3.checked;
agree4 = document.form.agree4.checked;

if((agree1==true) && (agree2==true) && (agree3==true) && (agree4==true))
{
window.document.location.href = "index_return.htm";
}
else
{
window.document.location.href="x/x.htm";
}

}


</script>

It appears that agree 1 and question1 are checkboxes. I can't remember for sure but you might try to check to see if agree1 and question1 are false like you do in function Check(). This should display the alert if it is false.

I think I got it.. thanks for the lead...

if(!agree1 && !question1 && !question2 && !question3)

I used the logical operators to say if agree1 is not true....this validates the form correctly..
