Htmldb_get object in IF statement

Question

Hi all,
I I need to use the return object of htmldb_get method in a if statement after I make my AJAX query. Something like below:
var get = new htmldb_Get(null,html_GetElement('pFlowId').value,'APPLICATION_PROCESS=APP_PROC',0);
get.add('APP_ITEM',html_GetElement('P11_TEST').value)
gReturn = get.get();
if (gReturn=='0')
// do some stuff
I can get the value of gReturn by other means but need to use it in a IF statement. The gReturn will have a value of '0' or '1' outputted by the application process APP_PROC
The code in above gives invalid character error in IE. Anyone please guide me the right way to use gReturn in if statement? Thanks.
PS: I am definitely sure the issue is with the if(gReturn=='0') because if I do if (true) the rest of the javascript/ajax function executes without problem.

Answer 1

Adding a parameter to htmldb_Get is done through "addParam", not "add"?
Have you tried to put an alert of your return?
If you have firefox with firebug, look at the ajax call, look at your POST parameters, and look at your response. Maybe an error is being thrown instead of the number your expect?
extra-curricular: I don't know which version of apex introduced the $v function, but it'd write easier than html_GetElement: $v('pFlowId'), or $('#pFlowId').val()
