Calling javascript function in onsubmit

so I have this function defined in javascript.. 

function varReplace(formid)
{
    if (formid.factsc[0].checked == true) {
        formid.adddetails.value == "it's working";
    }
    else {
        formid.adddetails.value == "it's not working";
    }
}

where I want to give adddetails a certain value if the factsc in html is clicked "yes".

On the html side, I call the function like this.. 

onsubmit="return varReplace(this.form)"

But it doesn't work.. any help would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance!

You are not returning anything from your function.

Note that in order to cancel the submit event, the onSubmit should be in the form onSubmit="return expression". "return" indicates that the value of the expression should be returned to the submit routine. If the expression evaluates to false, the submit routine is cancelled; if it is true, the submit routine goes forward.
