using the client side "onchange" event function

[Norm via DotNetMonster.com]

I have an onchange event which fires when the content of an HTML textbox
changes. My problem is that when I try to compare the content of this textbox
with another HTML textbox using an if statement, I get a Page Error and my
code fails. This has got to be a no brainer. Any help out there for a
clueless newbie?

This works:
function ow8t_onchange()
{
alert("success");
}

This crashes:
function ow8t_onchange()
{
if(crw8t.value != ow8t.value)
{
alert("success");
}
}

try
function ow8t_onchange()
{
if(document.formname.crw8t.value <> document.formname.ow8t.value)
{
alert("success");
}
}

replace forname with whatever form name you use..

or use

document.getElementById("crw8t").value

This makes your code a little more generic since it does not rely on the
name of the form.
