You really don't need to refrence them by name.

function selectAll(formObj) 
{
   for (var i=0;i < formObj.length;i++) 
   {
      fldObj = formObj.elements[i];
      if (fldObj.type == 'checkbox')
      { 
        fldObj.checked = true; 
       }
   }
}

You'd have to use an if/then if you want to check/uncheck them all.

Subject: Checkbox with mutliple names passed to query needing 1 name


I have the following issue.  I had to create a form which is populated
from
a query which can return multiple rows, one of the form elements is a
Checkbox which is used to select a row or rows from the form to run a
succeeding select query.  Our users needed to capability to select or
deselect all check boxes at once and with help from CF-Talk we solved
this
issue using JavaScript and cfloop.  The snag is that in a multiple line
form
each checkbox now has a unique value as a result of this code: -

<td><input type="Checkbox" name="C#loopCount#"
value="#SVC_ADDR_ID#"></td>

The C#loopCount# means that each checkbox has a different name when it
passed to the next query and the query obviously needs a fixed checkbox
name
to interpret the form.checkbox var passed to it.  It's Catch22!

Anyone got any ideas on this? and I hope I described this clearly.
