I have a form that I am checking to see if a check box is checked. If it is not checked an alert pops up with an error message and when I click OK It checks the check box.

This is very weird. Code below

function isNumeric(elem, helperMsg){
var numericExpression = /^[0-9]+$/;
if(elem.value.match(numericExpression)){
return true;
}else{
alert(helperMsg);
elem.focus();
return false;
}
}
function ischecked(elem, helperMsg){
if(elem.checked == true){
return true;
}else{
alert(helperMsg);
elem.focus();
return false;

}
}
//document.myform.box1.checked == false
function chkFormmt(frm){
if(isNumeric(frm.homevalue, "Please enter a number for your Home Value")){
if(isNumeric(frm.numautos, "Please enter a number for your number of Vehicles")){
if(isNumeric(frm.avgvalue, "Please enter a number for your average vehicle value")){
if(ischecked(frm.checkbox, "You must check that you have read the disclamer")){
return true;
}
}
}
}
alert("here");
return false;
}

Maybe this quick example can help you.

<title><!--Sample--></title>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
var numValue = /^\d{1,3}[\,]\d{3}$/;
var numOfCar = /^d{1,2}$/;
function validate( form )
{ var mfields = [];
  if ( !numValue.test(form.hV.value )) { 

  mfields[mfields.length] = 'Please enter the price value of your house! On this following format-\n(eg. 1,000).\n'; }

if ( !numOfCar.test( form.nV.value )) { mfields[mfields.length] = 'Please enter the number of your vehicle! With a maximun digits\' of 2 or less.\n' }

if ( !numValue.test(form.vV.value )) { 

  mfields[mfields.length] = 'Please enter the price value of your vehicle! On this following format-\n(eg. 1,000).\n'; }

if ( !form.cB.checked ) { 

  mfields[mfields.length] = 'You must check that you agreed to our terms and policies!\n'; }



s = '';
s = ( mfields.length > 1 ) ? 's' : s;
  if ( mfields.length > 0 ) {
  helperMsg( mfields ); return false; } return true; 
}

function helperMsg(mfields)
{ var errorMsg = '\nThere where some problem' + s + '!\n';
  for ( var x = 0; x < mfields.length; x++ ) {
  var numErr = x + 1;

  errorMsg += '\n' + numErr + '. ' + mfields[x]; } alert(errorMsg); 
}
