<h3>Calculate Your Debt-to-Income Ratio</h3>
<p>Comparing your earnings against your spending , also known as a
debt-to-income ratio, is one of the most popular approaches for evaluating if you have too much debt. Lenders, for years, have looked at debt-to-income ratios to get a better grasp on a person's current financial picture to determine credit-worthiness.</p>
<p>Use this calculator to calculate your debt-to-income ratio.</p>
<form name="debt_calc">
<table border=0 cellpadding=5 cellspacing=0>

<td>Monthly mortgage or rent</td>
<td><input type="text" name="mortgage" size="10"></td>

<p>Now that you have calculated your debt-to-income ratio, understanding what it means to you is the next step. </p>
<ul>
<li> 36% or less: This is an ideal debt load to carry for most people. Showing that you can control your spending in relation to your income is what lenders are looking for when evaluating if you are credit-worthy. </li>
<br><br>
<li> 37% to 42%: Your debts still may seem manageable, but start paying them down before they begin to spiral out of control. At this level, credit cards still may be easy to obtain, but acquiring loans may be more difficult. </li>
<br><br>
<li> 43% to 49%: Your debt ratio is high and financial difficulties may be looming unless you take immediate action.</li>
<br><br>
<li> 50% or more: Seek professional help to make plans for drastically reducing your debt before it becomes a real problem. </li>
</ul>
<p>If you're concerned about your credit management, ask someone at your credit union for guidance or for referral to a credit counseling agency.</p>

Hi macky4546,
You have two problems here:[list]You must remove the <form . . .> and </form> tags from your form HTML. ChronoForms adds its own form tags and having two sets will stop the form from working. Your JavaScript looks for the 'document.debt_calc' but ChronoForms will rename the form to 'ChronoContact_debt_calc' so you need to make equivalent changes in your JavaScript. [/list]

Hi macky4546,
You have two problems here:[list]
Bob
ok i actaully got the script from another site.
now when you say the javascript looks for 'document.debt_calc', does that mean there is a document somewhere on the server that has info in it. or do i just change that to say 'ChronoContact_debt_calc'?
And im assuming you put the java script in the form javascript section under the form code section, correct?
hi macky, you are correct with all, its iwll be document.ChronoContact_debt_calc
Regards

function calculateDebt() {
var mortgage = new Number(document.ChronoContact_debt_calc.mortgage.value.clearNonfloat()) + 0;
var card = new Number(document.ChronoContact_debt_calc.card.value.clearNonfloat()) + 0;
var car = new Number(document.ChronoContact_debt_calc.car.value.clearNonfloat()) + 0;
var other = new Number(document.ChronoContact_debt_calc.other.value.clearNonfloat()) + 0;
var debt_total = mortgage + card + car + other;
if(isNaN(debt_total))
{
alert("All entries must be numbers");
document.ChronoContact_debt_calc.debt.value = "";
}
else
{
document.ChronoContact_debt_calc.debt.value = debt_total + 0;
}
}that look correct, if so, its not working😟

Hi macky4546,
Ah. That's because your form is called Calculator (not debt-calc). Sorry, the mind reading function has failed again.
So the form name to use in the JavaScript is ChronoContact_Calculator. To save you making all the changes each time you can define a JavaScript variable.
