You can use also:

where "i" is your index of forms  if you are working with frames, if you are not you must put forms[0].

Hi,

I can't seem to find the answer to this on the forums although I'm sure it's there somewhere.

I have a hidden field hdHTML that contains some html code. I also have a javascript function

     doc = lrgewin.document;
     doc.open('text/html');
     doc.write(htmlText)
     doc.close();
 }

On the button I have the following:
