You write javascript in the same way that you write HTML: document.formname.city = "<%=cityvariable%>";
And just leave the textbox values the way they are now, as the default.

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.

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?
