js problem

[mbarandao]

I'm working with this form which has js calendar. unfortunately, I can't get the calendar to work onclick. It produces the following error:

Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token

can't make out the error. Not sure if this is related to another onclick function. Here is the actual code:

<form name='PaymentForm' onsubmit='return ValidatePaymentForm();' action='updatebalancedue.php' method='post'>

I'm using the form within a php code.

This is my script section:

<script type="text/javascript" src="../../js/jquery-1.3.2.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="../../js/jquery.textarea-expander.js"></script>


<script>
function ValidatePaymentForm()
{    
var paymentamount = document.PaymentForm.paymentamount; 
var paymenttype = document.PaymentForm.paymenttype;   
if (paymentamount.value == "0.00")    
{        
window.alert("Sorry, no Payment Amount is indicated!");        
paymentamount.focus();        
return false;    
} 

if (paymenttype.value == "Select One")    
{        
window.alert("Indicate form of payment!");        
paymenttype.focus();        
return false;    
} 

return true;
}

</script>

<!--script for calendar begins-->
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="dhtmlgoodies_calendar.css?random=20051112" media="screen"></LINK>
<SCRIPT type="text/javascript" src="dhtmlgoodies_calendar.js?random=20060118"></script>
<!--script for calendar ends-->

The calendar code is highlighted in red.
any assistance is appreciated!

I got the issue resolved! The problem was with my quotation here:

onclick="displayCalendar(this.form.theDate,'yyyy/mm/dd',this)"

Initially, I had used single quotes--changing it to double quotes resolved the issue.

...suggestion courtesy of another "forumer"...
