Hi srinathpandit! Welcome to bytes.com!

It's great to have you here!

When you post, please always keep to the Posting Guidelines and when you post code, please post it in [code] ... [/code] tags. Just look at how much nicer your code would look with them:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. <script>
  2. function Login(){
  3.    var done=0;
  4.    var username=document.login.username.value;
  5.    username=username.toLowerCase();
  6.    var password=document.login.password.value;
  7.    password=password.toLowerCase();
  8.    if (username=="adventure" && password=="adventure") {
  9.       window.location="myaccount/Redeem_Game_Card.html"; done=1; }
  10.    if (done==0) {
  11.       document.getElementById("error_msg").style.display = "block";
  12.    }
  13. }
  14. </SCRIPT>
  15.  
  16.  
  17. <a href="#" onClick="javascript:Login()">LOGIN</a>
(although I did indent it manually)

As I've seen, you've also posted your question in the Javascript / DHTML / Ajax Forum - which is the right place for it. This isn't. So in future, please post your questions only in the relevant forum.

Otherwise, I'll just wish you the best and hope you enjoy being part of bytes.com!

Greetings,
Nepomuk

re: javascript is not working in firefox

Hi,

Thanks for reply.

I am not getting any error message, But script is working in IE but not in firefox.
The requirement is, On giving user ID and Password, onclick on submit button,
the page should go to the Redeem_Game_Card.html.

This is not working in firfox.

I checked the error Console, There is no script errors on it on some CSS issues are there.

re: javascript is not working in firefox

When you say it's not working, what happens? Does it just stay on the page even if you input the correct username/password?

PS. you shouldn't have login code on the client-side.

re: javascript is not working in firefox

From a cursory look, the JavaScript code seems OK.

The HTML for the link could be changed to this:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. <a href="#" onclick="Login(); return false;">LOGIN</a>
or better still use a button:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. <input type="button" onclick="Login()" value="LOGIN">
