Question

if($("#Fees_ProfitType:checked").attr("val") == 29751)
                {
                    FormatAsMoney(this, 10000000000, true); 
                }
                else if($("#Fees_ProfitType:checked").val() == 29751)
                {
                    FormatAsMoney(this, 10000000000, true); 
                }

So I have this setup in javascript. When it runs through for Firefox, it notices the first if() as undefined, so it runs to the second, and formats the field.

When I run it through as IE it calls if($("#Fees_ProfitType:checked").attr("val"), and returns 29751, however when I compare them, it doesn’t equal and won’t alert.

What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

It is possible that the value returned be a string.
So, try to do this:

$("#Fees_ProfitType:checked").attr("val") == '29751'

Or this:

parseInt($("#Fees_ProfitType:checked").attr("val"),10) == 29751
