I dont think you can use a dot in a name and if you try to access the
element as document.<formname>.abc.txt.value

javascript will assume it to be two diffrenet object "abc" and "txt" and
will give an error. I thinkthe best solution would be to eliminate the dot.
cause there is no escape character for a "dot" Atleast not that i know of.

   I have an input box in a form with the name having a dot in it,;i.e; a
name like "abc.txt". I want to read the value of this input box in a
javascript function. How do I do it?
Thanx in advance,
Divya.
