loop problem

[eugzl]

I would like to create loop to check data entered by user into TextField with all array values in global variable. I tried like this:

var i = 0;  
for (i = 0; i < 3; i++) {  
     if (txtName.rawValue == _Name[i]) {  
          xfa.host.messageBox("Your NAME is correct.");  
     }  
}  
if (i == 3) {  
     xfa.host.messageBox("Your NAME is wrong.");  
}  

where:

      _Name = eval(Names.value) is global variable array value

and

    txtName is TextField where user type data.

When I run the execute that code I got the second message pop up first and then first message . How to fix the problem?

Thanks.

Hi,

I think you just need a break statement after "Your NAME is correct" message, this will stop the loop and so at the end of the value of I will never be 3.

so;

for (i = 0; i < 3; i++) {  

     if (txtName.rawValue == _Name[i]) {  

          xfa.host.messageBox("Your NAME is correct.");  

          break;

     }  

}
