First comment is that its JavaScript and not Java. Two completely seperate
langauges/entities. You problem is that javascript thinks that your forms
fields contain strings, not integers, so you need to convert em. I believe
its called parseInt, but I cant remember exactly, do that then do the
addition and it will work great.
