text field and alert not quite working

[salamis]

I still have a problem. What I need is if neither box is selected, I get a alert, and if both are selected I get a alert.
(only one of the two can be selected)
The problem occurs in the 2rd part with the !, if only one is selected, I still get the alert, but I am using &&

Any suggestions?

if ((frm.rePaymentPeriod.value == "&quot && (frm.monthlyCost.value == "&quot)
{
alert("You must choose either the montly \r"+
"cost or the repayment period field."
frm.monthlyCost.focus();
frm.monthlyCost.select();
return false;
}

if (((parseInt (frm.rePaymentPeriod.value) !== "&quot && (parseInt (frm.monthlyCost.value) !== "&quot))
{
alert("You have selected both the montly \r"+
"cost and the repayment period fields.\r"+
"Please select only one.&quot
frm.monthlyCost.focus();
frm.monthlyCost.select();
return false;
}
return true;
}

Try replacing !== by !=

I noticed that you're comparing an integer to an empty string. Not sure how JavaScript treats this but you might do something like this.

parseInt(frm.rePaymentPeriod.value) != 0
