That's off a bit.
function testField(thisField){
myString = "o,b/o,s,h";
myArray = myString.split(",");
for(i = 0; i < myArray.length; i++){
if(thisField.value == myArray[i]){
break
}else
if(myArray.length == (i-1)){
alert('String not in list');
}
}
}
That should be closer.

I would split the list into an array then loop through like so:
function testField(thisField){
myString = "o,b/o,s,h";
myArray = myString.split(",");
for(i = 0; i < myArray.length; i++){
if(thisField.value == myArray[i]){
break
}
alert('String not in list');
}
}
That should do something like it.

Subject: -OT- Javascript and lists
How do I look through a list of strings in Javascript and compare each to a
variable? I'm trying to do the following:
Set up a list like this "O,B/O,S,H"
And then loop through and compare each the data in a form field and if the
form field doesn't match any of the choices, have it throw an alert.
