you're using the assignment statment in your compare.
if (theForm.elements(i).value = "1")
assigns "1" to theForm.elements(i).value. it sould be
if (theForm.elements(i).value == "1")
notice the double ='s.
i should have noticed that earlier, sorry. i hope it helps. it IS late.
i've cc'd you on it in the hopes that it might help you out faster.

Subject: RE: JavaScript "object expected" error
Thanks, Chris! That definitely fixed the errors...now...
The form itself is not validating. I.E., I am able to select a number of
fields to "registered" (represented by a 1) that exceeds the class
size...the action form still processes, even though the max has been
exceeded...
If this weren't a hot item right now and I weren't facing the prospect of
staying up all night with this, I would stick it out and figure it out
myself...but, I really need the sleep...;)
<cfoutput>
<script language="Javascript">
function validateForm(theForm){
var registeredCount = #registered.registered_count#;
for (i=0;i<theForm.length;i++){
if (left(theForm.elements(i).name, 11) ="status_name")
if (theForm.elements(i).value = "1")
registeredCount = registeredCount + 1;
}
if (registeredCount > #classname.class_size#){
alert('The maximum class size is " & #classname.class_size# & "."');
return false;
}
return true;
}
</script>
</cfoutput>

you shoule have
function validateForm(theForm) {...
and reference all objects on this form as theform.elements(i)...
you're currently passing the form as a paramater ("return
validateForm(this)") but aren't using it in the function.
