How should this should be done with an array help?
Thank you.



if(form.elements["state"].value != '3' || form.elements["state"].value != '6' || form.elements["state"].value != '23' ||
form.elements["state"].value != '33' || form.elements["state"].value != '34' || form.elements["state"].value != '41' ||
form.elements["state"].value != '42' || form.elements["state"].value != '43' || form.elements["state"].value != '46' ||
form.elements["state"].value != '49' || form.elements["state"].value != '50' || form.elements["state"].value != '52' ||
form.elements["state"].value != '64')

How should what be done with an Array?

What is it that you are trying to achieve?

If you want to check that a given string matches any element of an array of strings, you could do something like:

var arrValidValues = new Array('3','6','23','33','34',
                               '41','42','43','46',
                               '49','50','52','64');

function isMember(strValue, arrValueList){
 for(var i = 0; i < arrValueList.length; i++){
  if(arrValueList[i] == strValue){
   return true;
  }
 }
 return false;
}

Then you can call your function as per:

if(isMember(form.elements["state"].value, arrValidValues)){
 ... something here
}
