I'm new to Info Path so forgive me for the simplicity of this question. But
I'm modifying the Expense Report template and have added a few more fileds of
my own. Now I'm trying to compare two fileds to see which has the lowest
value and take that and do some calculations with it; see below! Except what
happens is that it never picks up the right value. Here I'm looking for the
lowest value, if I enter 100 for USAIDLodgingPerDiem and enter 50 for
ActualHotelCostPerNight it always takes the 100. Now enter a lower value than
100 and it works just fine! PUZZELED!!
Any assistance would be greatly appreicated.

function TravelLodgeCost()
{
    var USAIDLodgingPerDiem =
XDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("//my:USAIDLodgingPerDiem");
    var ActualHotelCostPerNight =
XDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("//my:ActualHotelCostPerNight");
    var NumberOfNights = XDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("//my:NumberOfNights");
    var LodgingCalculation =
XDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("//my:LodgingCalculation");

    if (USAIDLodgingPerDiem.nodeTypedValue >=
ActualHotelCostPerNight.nodeTypedVlaue){
        XDocument.UI.Alert(USAIDLodgingPerDiem.nodeTypedValue);
        setRoundedValue(LodgingCalculation,
getNodeTypedValue(ActualHotelCostPerNight,0,true) *
getNodeTypedValue(NumberOfNights,0,true));
    }else{
        XDocument.UI.Alert(USAIDLodgingPerDiem.nodeTypedValue);
        setRoundedValue(LodgingCalculation,
getNodeTypedValue(USAIDLodgingPerDiem,0,true) *
getNodeTypedValue(NumberOfNights,0,true));
    }


}

You may want to fix the typo in your code first and then try it again.
"ActualHotelCostPerNight.nodeTypedVlaue" should be
"ActualHotelCostPerNight.nodeTypedValue". It might make a difference...

That wasn't the issue! Any other suggestions?
