JavaScript problem with variables-functions in AJAX ( jQuery )

[Aram Ghazanchyan]

I need to check same login verification submitted from form with help of AJAX/jQuery
Here is the sources ( jQuery file is not included )
main.html

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" src="jquery.js"></script>
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
function verif() 
{
	var myErr = '';	
	var f = document.f1reg;
	
	myErr+=" * Fill in all required fields.\n";
	
	$.ajax({
	   type: "POST",
	   url: "checkusername.php",
	   data: "username="+ f.username.value,
	   success: function(msg){
			if (msg == "1"){
				myErr+=' * User with such login already exists.\n';
				//alert(myErr); Label 1
			}
	   }
	 });
	//alert(myErr); Label 2

	if (myErr!='') {
		alert('The following information is incorrect:\t\t\t\t\t\n\n'+myErr); // Label 3
	} 
	return (myErr=='');
}
</script>


<form action="action.php" method="post" name="f1reg" id="f1reg" onsubmit="return verif();">
  
  Login: <input type="text" id="username" name="username" value="" tabindex="1" />
    <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" />
  </div>
</form>

checkusername.php just prints "1"

The problem is the following:
On Label 1, myErr adds an error message to the list
On Label 2, myErr looses the latest message and just shows " * Fill in all required fields.\n";
On Label 3, the same situation as in Label 2
But if I remove Label 2 comment, and alert any message in that part of code, the script starts to working well.
What is the problem?

Error is here:
if (msg == "1"){
myErr+=' * User with such login already exists.\n';
//alert(myErr); Label 1
}

You write msg == "1", but javascript string use single quotes only: '1'
replace that to msg == '1'

Use single quotes only and be happy! )
