weddingQty is not defined

Hi all,

For some reason, I cannot get one of the forms on a page I am doing as a class assignment to work. I've gotten most of the Javascript to work ok with no problems but this little problem is driving me nuts.

Here's the code:

Code:

  function wedPrice(myform) {
              var weddingQty = myform.WedQty.value
              var EstPrice = weddingQty * document.WeddingPrice.Price.value.substring(1,6)
              var EstPrice = new String(EstPrice)
              document.WeddingQuantity.WedExtPrice.value = dollarFormat(EstPrice)
          }

The error I get when testing with Mozilla Firefox is this: weddingQty is not defined.

After some experimentation with ideas I had in my head, I found out the the textbook I'm using has weddingQty confused with WeddingQuantity.

So basically, changing

Code:

var weddingQty = myform.WedQty.value
var EstPrice = weddingQty * document.WeddingPrice.Price.value.substring(1,6)

to

Code:

var WeddingQuantity = myform.WedQty.value
var EstPrice = WeddingQuantity * document.WeddingPrice.Price.value.substring(1,6)

works without any problems

Apparently you're setting weddingQty to an undefined value.

Make absolutely sure that myform.WedQty.value is defined and does not return undefined.

I know. That's why I played around with it until I got something that would work out.
