OK, first problem - I can get all the address variables when I first load
the page, but how do I get javascript to read server generated variables?  I
also (at the moment) have the text box values set to the server variables
i.e.:

<Input type="text" name="box" id="box" value="<%=variable%>">

I admit I haven't used much javascript, though I'm always willing to expand
my horizons.

Diane

You can use javascript to achieve this.

<select name="address" onchange="changeaddresses(this.SelectedIndex);">
        <option>Address1</option>
        <option>Address2</option>
        <option>Address3</option>
        <option>Address4</option>
</select>



<script language="javascript>
        function changeaddresses(choice) {
                switch (choice) {
                        case 0: {
                                document.formname.address1 = "Your
Address1";
                                document.formname.city = "Your City1";
                                ...}
                        case 1: {
                                document.formname.address1 = "Your
Address2";
                                document.formname.city = "Your City2";
                                ...}
                }
        }
</script>

My syntax might be a little bit off but the idea and logic is the same.

Subject: form within a form problem

This is what I'm trying to do.  I have a page with a member's title,
first
name, middle name, and last name.  Below that I have one of the complete
addresses along with an effective date.  There are four address that can
be
seen, with a drop down box to allow the user to select which one.  I'd
like
to not have to have a submit button for the address list, but have it
work
as soon as a selection is made.  Below this I have phone numbers.  Some
of
these phone numbers will change with the address viewed.  Finally, I
have
the submit and delete buttons for the page.  It looks something like
this:

Viewing member: <list box> Submit

title        First Name   Middle Name   Last Name
<text box>   <text box>   <text box>    <text box>

<address list box>  <address 1 text box>  <address 2 text box>
                          <city text box>       <state><zip text boxes>
                    <country text box>    <effective date text box>

Phone: <text box>   Fax: <text box>   Cell Phone: <text box>
Email: <text Box>                     Pager: <text box>

                        Update  Delete

This puts me in the unenviable position of needing a form within a form.
I
want the user to be able to select the address to view, and the update
button to update all visible data.  If address 1 is the default address
shown, but the user selects address 2, then makes changes, I want to
update
address 2 when the update button is pressed.

This is the format I was asked to follow.  They want the 'look and feel'
to
be the same as a desk top version written in VB.  I'm sure there has got
to
be a way to pull this off.  Any ideas?

Thanks,
Diane
