[Dan-CFTagStore.com]

Hi,

See attached code.

This will do the trick and hopefully is what your looking for.

Regards,
Dan.
<script>
function checkValue(theId) {
var numberOfElements=document.getElementById("myForm") .elements.length;
var theValueToCheck=document.getElementById(theId).val ue;

if(theValueToCheck>=0 && theValueToCheck <=10) {
for(i=0;i<numberOfElements;i++) {
if(document.getElementById("myForm").elements[i].value==theValueToCheck && document.getElementById("myForm").elements[i].id!=theId) {
alert("Value already used");
document.getElementById(theId).value="";
document.getElementById(theId).focus();
break;
}
}
} else {
alert("Rating is only between 1 and 10");
document.getElementById(theId).value="";
document.getElementById(theId).focus();
}
}
</script>
