I'm making a e-mailer form on my web page, and I got a combobox that has as
choices all of the states. What I want it to do is that when a user picks a
state, it sends the e-mailto the appropriate person(denoted by names west,
east, etc.
heres the code i have so far. I get 2 errors. 1st says im missing a (
somewhere in the first statement, 2nd says the if at the end of the else if
statement(last one) doesn't match. ANy help would be greatly appreciated

this should fix the on(event) errors

on(release)
if(STATE.text == "CA,OR,WA,ID,NV,MT,WY,UT,AZ,AK,HI,NM")
recipient = "WEST"
}else if(STATE.text == "TX,CO,ND,SD,NE,KS,OK,AR,IA,MO")
recipient = "SOUTH"
}else if(STATE.text == "MN,LA,WI,IL,KV,AL,GA,MS,FL,SC,NC,VA,WV,IN,MI")
recipient = "EAST"
} else
recipient = "North"

getURL("")

Jack,
I can't thank you enough man!!! YOu saved my butt on that one!

no pb :)
Good Luck

I see you helped someone else with recipient. Can you please help me with an
array. When numbers selected, to go to a particular frame? and if not
selected for message to display????
appreciate greatly. ale


on(release)
if(STATE.text == "1,2,3")
gotoAndStop (21)
}else if(STATE.text == "4,5,6")
gotoAndStop (22)
} else
messge = "Please select a State"

If you want something to happen if STATE.text is an element of an array, try something like:
for(x=0;x<arrayName.length;x++){
if(STATE.text ==arrayName[x]){
do something;
}

I will try that.
Thank you very much.

Are you actually expecting the user to type in "1,2,3" ?? Because that is
what you are testing for.

Or are you waning to check for one of three possibilities.. in which case
use

if (STATE.text = "1" || STATE.text = "2" || STATE.text = "3")

etc
