Question

Keep getting SyntaxError: missing ) in parenthetical 46:

I've renamed my Array and keep getting this error.  When I run script with the renamed Array in the console, it calculates appropriately.  I've tried going through line by line and can't seem to find the error.  Might be I just need a fresh set of eyes to catch my mistake.  As per usual, everyones help & advice is greatly appreciated.

(original script)

var AW = this.getField("Weight").value;

var t = this.getField("Temperature").value;

var b = Math.ceil(AW / 1000) * 1000;

var c = Math.floor(AW / 1000) * 1000;

var d = 10000;

var e = 18300;

var m = 1;

var UpperWt = b;

if (b > e) {

    UpperWt = e;

}

var LowerWt = c;

if (c < d) {

    LowerWt = d;

}

I'm not getting any syntax errors for either code. Are you sure that's the exact code you're using?


By the way, there's no need to put parentheses around numbers, like in this statement:

t >= (-18)

It could simply be:

t >= -18

Copied the code above, made the change in your reply.  Still getting a syntax error when I paste the code into my form's button javascript action.  Code still works and calculates correctly when I paste it directly into the javascript console, highlight the entire code and press Shift-Enter on my Mac (correctly calculates value of 4731 with a "Weight" value of 17500 and "Temperature" value of 16, when entered on my form.

var AW = this.getField("Weight").value;

var t = this.getField("Temperature").value;

var b = Math.ceil(AW / 1000) * 1000;

var d = 10000;

var e = 18300;

var m = 1;
