Hi,
Yes you were right, it seems "this" wasn't referencing the form, if you
simply replace it with
line 149 onClick=javascript:FindNets(search.node.value)
and line 61 chk =
ar[i].desc.toLowerCase().indexOf(obj.toLowerCase())
then it's fine, see:
http://www.resass.f2s.com/dynapi2/dynapi/Ed_Baxter_Examples/tree.htm
as the example is not on the main site yet because the dynAPI version is
older.
regarding my changes:
No changes where made to the widget.
Basically I think you would want to adapt the widget a little, as your needs
are pretty specific, what I tried was writing the whole node content in a
table, and adding that to 1 node.
Cheers,
Richard Bennett
