How to perform exceptional statements, if text assertion fails?

Hi,

In my script, I want to verify some text messages as well as successful execution of script. If verification & execution is successful, I want to set flag as 1, if it fails, I want to set 0 as flag.

I am trying to use "try catch" method with _assertEqual() API, but it doesn't work as _assertEqual does not return anything and doesn't execute the catch(e) part.
Below is my example code:
var $flag = 1;
try
{
_click(_link("abc"));
_setvalue(_textbox("name"), "xyz");

_assertEqual("Name changed successfully.", _getText(_div("successmessage")));
$flag = 1;
}
catch(e)
{
$flag = 0;
}

It does not set flag as '0', if text assertion fails.

Please help, how to do this?

    Hi

    as far as I know, _asserts return a boolean. Try: 
    $flag=_assertEqual("Name changed successfully.", _getText(_div("successmessage")));
_alert($flag);

    Hi Wormi,

    Yes, it returns "true" if assertion succeeds, but what if it fails? It does not return anything on failure. (This is what I observed).

    var $flag = 0;
    try
    {
    _click(_link("abc"));
    _setvalue(_textbox("name"), "xyz");
    if(_condition(_assertEqual("Name changed successfully." ,_getText(_div("successmessage"))==true))){
    $flag = 1;
    }
    }
    catch(e)
    {
    // some message
    }
