having alert(ajax2.responseText);//== "mobiAppDiv"
neither code in if blocks alerts executes...well???????????????????

	
ajax2.onreadystatechange=function() 
 { 	  
if (ajax2.readyState==4 && ajax2.status==200) 
alert(ajax2.responseText);//== "mobiAppDiv"
{ 			
if (ajax2.responseText == "mobiAppDiv") { 			 				 				
alert("The "+email+" already existed in Notification List!");  			
} else if ("mobiAppDivInserted" == ajax2.responseText) {  				
alert("The "+email+" entered in Notification List!"); 			 			
}  		
} 	  
}			 		
ajax2.send();

The responseText is usually rich HTML. However, if you are getting results from a PHP script, it might be something like what you're looking for. But the == test for equality in javascript demands that there be no differences other than type (string, number, boolean, etc. - and then only if one can be easily type converted to the other's type) in the two things being compared. In the case of two strings (what you have here), if there's a carriage return, line feed, space, tab, none of those will show up here:

alert(ajax2.responseText)

because the alert method at times strips those, in other cases they are preserved, but cannot be easily seen because there's little or no frame of reference. How would you know there's a preceding or trailing white space character in an alert, you can't see it. It may or may not even create an offset of any kind.

So I would suggest that instead of the == comparison, use a regular expression or indexOf method. Using indexOf is probably best for this:

ajax2.onreadystatechange=function() 
 { 	  
if (ajax2.readyState==4 && ajax2.status==200) 
{ 			
alert(ajax2.responseText);//== "mobiAppDiv"
if (ajax2.responseText.indexOf("mobiAppDiv") > -1) { 			 				 				
alert("The "+email+" already existed in Notification List!");  			
} else if (ajax2.responseText.indexOf("mobiAppDivInserted") > -1) {  				
alert("The "+email+" entered in Notification List!"); 			 			
}  		
} 	  
}			 		
ajax2.send();

Another possibility is that the variable 'email' is undefined. That would also stop the alerts from happening.

It could be something else, something we cannot see from the code snippet you provide.

The browser cache may need to be cleared and/or the page refreshed to see changes.

used .indexOf(" solved thks!

[lse123]

			//alert(ajax2.responseText);
			if (ajax2.responseText.indexOf("WmobiAppDivInserted")) {
/**/			document.getElementById("mobiAppDivAlreadyIn").style.display = "none";
				document.getElementById("mobiAppDiv").style.display = "none";
				document.getElementById("mobiAppDivInserted").style.display = "block";
				alert("The "+email+" entered in Notification List!");
			
			
			} else if (ajax2.responseText.indexOf("mobiAppDivAlreadyIn")) {
/**/			document.getElementById("mobiAppDiv").style.display = "none";
				document.getElementById("mobiAppDivInserted").style.display = "none";
				document.getElementById("mobiAppDivAlreadyIn").style.display = "block";				
				alert("The "+email+" already existed in Notification List!");

			}

		}
	  }			
		ajax2.send();

worked but 3nd alert never executes event the first alert(test alert) shows="mobiAppDivAlreadyIn", well?

Right, I was just thinking that. Reverse the order of the tests. Because "mobiAppDiv" can be found in both "mobiAppDiv" and in "mobiAppDivInserted", you would need to test for "mobiAppDivInserted" first. If it's found, execute the code for that. If it's not found, then test for "mobiAppDiv". Then do whatever depending upon whether or not that's found.
