Comparing two strings ('Object expected' error)

[Guest_imported]

I am going crazy trying to figure something so straightforward. I compare the value from a radio button to a value stored in a cookie. They both have the value of '69', yet the browser (IE 5.0) throws back an error, 'Object Expected'. I then tried to convert both values to integers using the parseInt() function. This did not work. I have been trying various toString() functions, but still can't seem to execute what would seem a very simle if statement If ( x == y) What am I doing wrong??
