Hi,

I've been getting errors saying "Object required" when I try to check the contents of a label's text. I'm trying to have the function execute only if the label's text is blank. The following is my code:

    <script>
  function NewWindow()
  {
    if (document.getElementById("txtpostdte").value != "")
    {
        var rptdate=document.getElementById("txtpostdte").valu e;
        var err=document.getElementById("lblerror").innerHTML;
        if (err = "")
        {
        window.open("TyDly.aspx?postdte=" + rptdate);
        }
    }
  }
        </script>

The error is pointing to where I set the variable 'err' equal to the lblerror's text. Is there something I'm doing wrong? I tried .innertext, .text, .value and still nothing works. In addition, is there any chance that I can combine both the txtpostdte and lblerror's conditions together? When I try to do it, I get an error. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

And, I'm not sure if this is the forum to post this in. If not, can someone please point me in the right direction? Thanks again.

You're better off posting this in the JavaScript forum, under the Web category. This forum is for ASP.NET 2.0, the new ASP.NET version from Microsoft.

That said, look at this:

if (err = "")


You're not comparing, you're assigning.

if (err == "")

compares err against ""
