Javascript Problem

Okay, the user will either have a cookie called banner with a value of 1 or 2.

Code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>Validation</title>
<script language="text/javascript">
function Validation()
{
function ReadCookie()
{
	with (document.CookieReader)
		{ if (document.cookie.banner == "1")
			{alert ("1") }
		if (document.cookie.banner == "2")
		   {alert ("2") }
		}
}
}
</script>
		

</head>

<body>
<input type="button" value="Click Me!"onClick="Validation()">
</body>
</html>

What I'm wondering is, why this code doesn't work, and also if I can say ==1 or ==2 like I did and have it be checking if the value of the cookie is 1 or 2. Anybody have an ideas?

you have to call the function after you define what it does

Code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>Validation</title>
<script language="text/javascript">
function Validation()
{
function ReadCookie()
{
	with (document.CookieReader)
		{ if (document.cookie.banner == "1")
			{alert ("1") }
		if (document.cookie.banner == "2")
		   {alert ("2") }
		}
}
ReadCookie();
}
</script>
		

</head>

<body>
<input type="button" value="Click Me!"onClick="Validation()">
</body>
</html>
