What's wrong here?

What's wrong with this code?

Code:

---

<script language="JavaScript"><!--
if (screen.width = 800){
        if (screen.height = 600){
        document.write "<BR><BR>";
      }
}
if (screen.width = 1024){
        if (screen.height = 768){
        document.write "<BR><BR><BR>";
        }
}
//--></script>

---

This fix should work in IE and NetScape. In javascript, to find out if two things are equal, you have to use a special comparison operator: "==". A plain equal sign assigns values, and says "this is that" but a double equal sign asks "is this that?" So your code works if'n you say

if (screen.width==800){whatever}

I tried that, it still doesn't work.

Wouldn't you have to use parethesens?
document.write("xxxx");

THANK YOU! It works now. Go to http://www.olemac.net/~hutch to see it in action.

Hey, I get a 404 error in the top frame it looks like:
Not Found

The requested URL /~hutch/msagent.html was not found on this server.


Apache/1.3.9 Server at http://www.olemac.net Port 80

And on a side not, those are some of the bad habits you can pick up from using VB too much :)

I think it was just a naming error, and the top frame isn't supposed to be visible, what browser are you using? Does it work now?

I'm using Netscape and yup theres no error anymore. The top half of the page is just a blank frame.
