Couple of question

1. How to use "else" without if?

example:

var sum1 = this.getField("field1").value;

var sum2 = this.getField("field2").value;

var total = sum1+sum2;

event.value = total;

else event.value = "";

 

2. In custom dialog box how to make "cancel" or "other" button do the same as "ok" button?

example:

 commit: function(dialog)
{
var data = dialog.store();
this.strName = data["usnm"];
},
butn: function(dialog){
this.strName = data["usnm"];
},

but it does nothing.

if I set it like this:

butn: function(dialog){
dialog.end("butn");

then it works, but I want it to do same as "ok" button.

You can't, and your question makes no sense to someone who knows what else is for ... I think you're trying to copy a part of something you don't understand. Under what ACTUAL situation would you want to set event.value to "" ? Because I assume you don't want to do it every single time. So, what you need is an if.

I know what else is for, was just asking in my example above how would set without if, field value to "" if there is no calculation.

But there IS a calculation. It's these three lines:

var sum1 = this.getField("field1").value;

var sum2 = this.getField("field2").value;

var total = sum1+sum2;

These will always happen. You need to define (because programmers need to be exact) just what you really mean by "no calculation". For example do you mean 

* field1 and field2 are both blank?

* field1 or field2, either one or both is blank?

* the result from adding up field1 and field2 is zero

* something else?

If you can answer this with accuracy, the code will probably be simple (and will have an if in it).
