reloaded. This means that any of the changes made to the page by the js
are lost when you submit. You should see the var form.outputselection if
you dump the form vars after submit.

Subject: Form and hidden variable question
Hi Guys,
I desparately need somebody to help me. I have a form
which has hidden variable, a textarea and a submit
button. When the submit button is clicked a OnClick
event calls a function subme() method. Here is my code
<form name="frm" method="post">
<input NAME="update" TYPE="submit"
VALUE="Calculate">
<textarea name="txtarea1" cols="40"
rows="5"></textarea>
<input type="hidden" name="outputselection" value="">
</form>
Here is the javacript code:
<script LANGUAGE="_javascript_">
function subme() {
method1();
document.frm.outputselection.value = PagecontentA +
PagecontentB + PagecontentC;
alert(document.frm.outputselection.value);
document.frm.submit();
}
function method1(){
PagecontentA ="Hello";
PagecontentB ="And";
PagecontentC ="Welcome";
}
</script>
When browsed in the browser on form submission the
alert displays the value "Hello And Welcome" but for
some reason when I view the source in the browser the
value of the hidden variable "outputselection" is
empty. I want to populate the textbox with the value
in the hidden variable. I am struggling to do this.
Can somebody please show me how to do this, I would
really appreciate your help
Best Regards,
Allan
