Javascript loop question?
I'm trying to make a small function, the user enters a 'Phrase' in the textbox, when the button is clicked I want the document to write it 10 times.. here's my code; I know I'm close but what am I doing wrong?
<script language="javascript">
function phrasecount() {
var i=1
var phval = document.phraseform.ph.value;
for (i=1;i<=10;i++)
{
document.write (phval);
document.write("<br />");
}
</script>
<form name="phraseform" id="phraseform">
Enter a phrase: <input type="text" name="ph" id="ph" size="100" value="" /><br>
<input type="button" value="Display" onClick='return phrasecount()' />
</form>
Excellent answer Ben, 5 *s from me. :)

Hey bud when you broke the line you created a javascript error look at how i did it.
http://everythingfla.com/ - my online flash and actionscript online school JavaScript and flash are so closly tied together that the first 20 hours of video more or less overlap the languages.

If you want to write on separate lines, try
document.write (phval+"< ;br />"); (without the space between t and ;)
