Changing button's URLs based upon text field

[cooped webforumsuser@macromedia.com]

I have created a quiz using the Coursebuilder extensions in DWMX, which puts their score in a text field on the page (no data base is used). What I would like is if they score an 80 or higher, the Next button would direct them to one html page, but if they failed (79 or lower) the same Next button would direct them to a different page. Any ideas?

Add this to the button (if it is submit, change it to button):

onClick="checkScore()"

then add this to the page:
<script>
function checkScore(){
d=document.myFormName.myTestScoreFieldName.value
window.location=(d<80)?'urlforlessthan80.html":"ur lform80plus.html";

}
</script>

Replace the myFormName with your form's name (sometimes form1) and
replace the myTestScoreFieldName with your test score field name.
