Hello,
This is my first post and I'm with Javascript a newbie I have this question:

I’m using a function to pass text from a dropdown menu in a textbox, each line that is passes in the textbox should have a number before it, and when the number is reaching 12 it should not be possible to pass any text in the text box. So I was thinking that if i=12 the function should be disabled and the user should get an alert but How can I do this ?

Thanks for any reply
Pete



Var i= 0

oldvalue = "";
function passText(passedvalue) {
if (passedvalue != "") {
var totalvalue = passedvalue+"\n"+oldvalue;
document.displayform.itemsbox.value = (i++) +totalvalue;
oldvalue = document.displayform.itemsbox.value;

}
}

Welcome to TSDN.

At the beginning of your function, add the line:

if (i == 12) return;
