Can someone please tell me why this validation won’t work in vers 5?

function Send() {
if (_root.firstname == ‘’) {
loadMovie(“fname-error.swf”, 1);
stop();
} else if (_root.lastname == ‘’) {
loadMovie(“lname-error.swf”, 1);
stop();
} else if (isNan(day_telephone)) {
loadMovie(“phone-error.swf”, 1);
stop();
} else if (_root.email == ‘’ || _root.email.indexOf(’.’, 0) == -1 || _root.email.indexOf(’@’, 0) == -1) {
loadMovie(“email-error.swf”, 1);
stop();
} else if (_root.maxrent == ‘’) {
loadMovie(“rent-error.swf”, 1);
stop();
} else if (_root.bedrooms == ‘’) {
loadMovie(“bedrooms-error.swf”, 1);
stop();
} else if (_root.movedate == ‘’) {
loadMovie(“date-error.swf”, 1);
stop();
} else if (_root.myVar<1) {
loadMovie(“check-error.swf”, 1);
stop();
} else {
getURL(“http://www.xxxxxxxx.com/”, “_parent”, “POST”);
}
}
