Stops execution of the current function. A return statement can be located anywhere within the function, including inside control structures. You can optionally specify a value to be returned to the calling statement. This return value can be any JavaScript data type. If a return statement that returns a value is in a loop or other control structure, there must be a return statement for each branch of the execution tree, including a default return statement if execution should reach the main execution scope near or at the end of the function. |

function validateNumber(form) {
var oneChar;
for (var i = 0; i < userEntry.length; i++) {
oneChar = form.entry.value.charAt(i);
if (oneChar < "0" || oneChar > "9") {
return false;
}
}
return true;
}
