compare 2 variables having number in javascript

Question

Below is my code which I am using.. Here I am getting values from form elements. Please guide me through it.. It is not giving proper result.

var outoff11 = document.getElementById('out_off11').value;
var acc11 = document.getElementById('acc11').value;
var temp = acc11 <= outoff11;
if(temp){
alert("True");
alert(outoff+acc);
}
    else{
            alert("False");
            alert(outoff+acc);
        }

Thanks in advance..

Based on the title of your question, I'm assuming you expect the two textfields to contain numbers. Is that correct? — Ray Toal

How about:

var outoff11 = parseInt(document.getElementById('out_off11').value, 10);
var acc11 = parseInt(document.getElementById('acc11').value, 10);

It is working for me.. Please tell me why you have used (value,10) in the last.

Well, that's not really necessary, but it just defines the numeric system you want the integer to be parsed as (you want decimal numbers, right?). 2 stands for binary, 10 stands for decimal and so on.

Change

var temp = acc11 <= outoff11;

to

var temp = parseInt(acc11,10) <= parseInt(outoff11,10);

This should solve the problem, but generally, it would be best to keep the int value, for later use without similar confusion, right?

I'm not sure what he's trying to accomplish but if there are no further manipulations on this, then this should be sufficient.
