No need for an else. Instead of declaring image as an empty string,
declare it with the default image. If one of the if sentences evaluates
to true, the value will be overwritten.

Lastly I must again stress that the resolution is the wrong thing to
test for, instead you should test for the size of the browser window.
They will rarely be the same.

And out of curiosity, why do you write an empty center tag to the body?

Conversation: small script question. need proper syntax
Subject: Re: small script question. need proper syntax

HI! ok, I see that I am not explaining what I want properly. so I will
give the whole piece and what it does. ( all I want is the proper way to
sent it to a default image)

Now. the code below checks if the users resolution matches any of the
below values and if so it loads the given image. now what if the user
has a rez that is not listed below? at this point as the code is it
would not load any image at all right?

So I need to add else statement so if the user does not have any of the
sez below it would at least load one image that I define as a default
image.

How do I add the ELSE statement?

Below is the in a js file.
-----------------------------------------Start of code-----------------
var Wvalue=(0) var Hvalue=(0) Wvalue=screen.width Hvalue=screen.height
var image=""; if (Wvalue==800&&Hvalue==600) {
image="../../../../../../../../../../../../../secondchance/images/backgr
ound
_files/background_blue_1.jpg";
}
if (Wvalue==640&&Hvalue==480) {
image="../../../../../../../../../../../../../secondchance/images/backgr
ound
_files/background_blue_2.jpg";
}
if (Wvalue==1024&&Hvalue==768) {
image="../../../../../../../../../../../../../secondchance/images/backgr
ound
_files/background_blue_2.jpg";
}
if (Wvalue==1080&&Hvalue==1024) {
image="../../../../../../../../../../../../../secondchance/images/backgr
ound
_files/background_blue_4.jpg";
}

document.open();
document.write("<BODY BACKGROUND='"+image+"'>");
document.write("<CENTER><\/CENTER>");

----------------------------------------------------------End of
code--------------------

Thanks for the responses guy and your patience :)
