hi all,

the code below has an error message and it says that the code in bold is null or not an object, now this code is within a .js file and calls those variables from a html page outside of the .js file:

var firstname = document.recruit.firstname.value;
var age = document.recruit.age.value;
var timeplayingcss = document.recruit.timecss.value;
function validateform(){
    if (firstname == "" || firstname == null && age <= "18" ||age == "" || age == null && timeplayingcss == "" || timeplayingcss == null) {
        alert("Excuse me " + document.recruit.firstname.value + " but you've left a few fields blank");
    }
    else
    {
    window.close();
    window.open("validated.html","","width=200,height= 200");
    }
}

function close_bringup(){
    var name = document.recruit.firstname.value;
    window.close;
    window.open("index2.html");
}

thanks to anyone who can help

Do you have a form on your page with the name "recruit"? E.g. <form name="recruit" ... > ?
