Generating Radio Button Result Depending On TextArea Value

Question

A few days ago I did not manage to generate a result from my radio button, I managed to solve that problem now. My other problem is how do I generate ONLY few set of the radio button depending on TextArea value changes;

For Example in this code

    <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">

function generatetest() {

codeOne = document.docContainer.text1.value;
codeTwo = document.docContainer.number2.value;

function firstType(){

var codeFour = 0;

for( i = 0; i < document.docContainer.radio4.length; i++ )
    {
    if( document.docContainer.radio4[i].checked == true )
    codeFour = document.docContainer.radio4[i].value;
    }

var codeTen = 0;

    for( i = 0; i < document.docContainer.radio10.length; i++ )
    {
    if( document.docContainer.radio10[i].checked == true )
    codeTen = document.docContainer.radio10[i].value;
    }

document.docContainer.textarea12.value = codeOne + codeTwo + codeFour + codeTen;
}

function secondType(){

var codeSix = 0;

for( i = 0; i < document.docContainer.radio6.length; i++ )
    {
    if( document.docContainer.radio6[i].checked == true )
    codeFour = document.docContainer.radio6[i].value;
    }

var codeEleven = 0;

    for( i = 0; i < document.docContainer.radio11.length; i++ )
    {
    if( document.docContainer.radio11[i].checked == true )
    codeTen = document.docContainer.radio11[i].value;
    }

document.docContainer.textarea12.value = codeOne + codeTwo + codeSix + codeEleven
}

if (document.docContainer.number2.value="1")
{
firstType();
}
else if (document.docContainer.number2.value="2")
{
secondType();
}


}
</script>

The code is working, problem is, even though I insert the value on textarea "number2" as "2", the code still generate firstType() result

Am Im using wrong if-statement or what and how do I go around about this?

Answer 1

Your code could be more fun to read, but Putting quotes around your numbers is causing javascript to treat them like text. Is this what you want to be doing?
