alert in Mozilla 1.4

[Jeramie Maratas]

I have a simple application that alerts a message when the input of the user is wrong. The alert seems to work fine with IE and Opera but when i tested it in Mozilla 1.4 under Turbo Linux Desktop OS, the alert always comes out.
Does anyone have any idea why is this so? Thanks..

Best Regards,

Hi,
I already found out the reason but unfortunately I dont know the solution yet. Here is a snippet of the code:
for(var i=1; i<= arrFiles.length; i++ ) {
if ( e.value == arrFiles[i]) {
bIsDuplicate = "true";
alert("The selected file is already in the file list.");
break;
}
}

It seems like the "break" command does not seem to work in Mozilla. I tried the "return" command too but it did not work as well.
Any help is very much appreciated.

try setting i to i = arrFiles.length + 10; instead of break,
And is there any reason you are starting at 2nd position (i=1) instead of the first position (i=0)?

Actually,
e.value == arrFiles[i] with i equals arrFiles.length does not make sense, since arrFiles[arrFiles.length] is always undefined.
break should work fine everywhere. Try the following:

label1: for( .....){
         ...
         break label1;
         ...
        }

You are right with the length the <= should just be <
