JS Problem

System

I am trying to work with a selectindex value. I am able to capture it and display it in a alert box. But when I try to check to see if its the particular value thats been selected, the alert/if statement doesnt work.

// Get the month selected to determine the number of of replicants allowed (28/29/30/31)

var monthItem = IWDatacapture.getItem("/Month");
var monthOptions = monthItem.getOptions();
var monthSelectionIndex = monthItem.getValue();

// this works and shows the correct value
{
alert("Test1 " + monthSelectionIndex);
}

// does not work with "2" and / or without the return statement
If (monthSelectionIndex == 2)
{
monthdays = 31;
alert("Test2 " + monthdays);
return true;
}
