I think you have to pass the entire scoped object to the function:
function changeIt(select1, select2){
if (select1[1].selected) {
select2.selectedIndex = 1;}
and call it like this:
onChange="changeIt(document.form.a1best, document.form.a1when)"
I have the hardest time remembering the DOM but I am pretty sure that
the correct thing to do is pass the entire scoped object.

Hi folks,
I'm in a foul mood this morning, and I'm trying to figure out this
javascript thing. That's a
bad combination for me. So, I decided to ask for help. Here's the basic
script that works (with the hardcoded names of the select boxes).
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" TYPE="text/javascript">
<!--
function changeIt(select1, select2){
var form = document.forms[0];
if (form.a1best[1].selected) {
form.a1when.selectedIndex = 1;}
}
//-->
</SCRIPT>
Basically, I want to be able to change the second select box if they
choose the first item in the first select box. But, when I try use the
variable names (select1, select2), it fails. Shouldn't I be able to call
the script like so: onChange="changeIt(a1best, a1when)" and change the
hardcoded references in the script above to select1 and select2 and have
it work?
