Javascript and Functions

Sorry for the VERY beginning code but I am having trouble tyring to get these functions to work. Could someone please help and see where I am going wrong? This is just the program, all tags are there just not listed here.

function START()
{
var name
var sales
var total
var total_com
var sales = new Array(3)
var com

Print_Header()
Initialize()
name = prompt("Enter salesperson's name or Quit to end")
while(name != Quit)
{
Data_Inputs(sales)
Calculations(com,total_com,sales)
Print_Detail(name,com)
name = prompt("Enter salesperson's name or Quit to end")
}
Print_com(total_com)
}

function Print_Header()
{
document.write("******************** ")
document.write("******Project 6****** ")
document.write("******************** ")
}

function Initialize(total_com)
{
total_com = 0

return total_com
}

function Data_Inputs(sales)
{
sales[0] = eval(prompt("Enter sales amount #1",""))

sales[1] = eval(prompt("Enter sales amount #2",""))

sales[2] = eval(prompt("Enter sales amount #3",""))

return sales
}

function Calculations(com, total_com, sales)
{
var sum

sum = sales[0] + sales[1] + sales[2]
com = sum * .20
total_com = total_com + com

return com, total_com, sales
}

function Print_Detail(name,com)
{
document.write("Salesperson, " + name + " made $" + com + " on all total sales"+" "))
}

function Print_com(total_com)
{
document.write("The total commission amount made is $" + total_com+" ")
}

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

Re: Javascript and Functions

What will happen when a use agent is used with no JavaScript support or a user chooses to or is forced to have JavaScript turned off?

I do not use JavaScript, it is to dangerouse and keeps to many people from using my sites, so i cannt help you. However it would seem that this is a important part of your site, so you must have it available for those who have JS turned off for what ever reason or use non-JS compatible user agaents like internet compatible game pads, game consoles, TV, cell phones, PDAs and text browsers and text browser based screen readers. The majority of all these do not support JS at all.

What you are trying to do is likely doable using othe rlanguages like PHP or Perl.

Be very carefull if you keep using JavaScript and be sure to use DOM based script so that there is a chance that it will still be useable. I would suggest though that you use PHP instead.

Re: Javascript and Functions

Don't forget to place a ";" at the end of each statement.
