• Your withdraw variable is undefined. – Soubhik Mondal Commented May 1, 2016 at 2:08
• That means that project doesn't have a withdrawal property. (Or it does have a withdrawal property, but that property's value is undefined.) – nnnnnn Commented May 1, 2016 at 2:09
• 1 you have a typo user.ueamil – Dave Pile Commented Nov 20, 2016 at 8:21

Sorted by: Reset to default 2

The variable withdraw is most likely undefined. Can you default it to an empty string with:

var withdraw = project.withdrawal || "";

That should avoid the error, but it might be better to check if there's another error causing withdrawal to be undefined.
