Hi guys,
Man, had to search for ages to find this solution :)
I would add that I couldn't get the proposed solution to work using:
"onSuccess: function(transport) {
$('cust_city').value = transport.responseText;
}, "
After looking up the Prototype site and the Ajax.Request function
here: http://www.prototypejs.org/api/form/element/getValue I had to
adapt the onSuccess function to this:
onSuccess: function(transport) {
var frm = $('formname');
var room = frm['room'];
$(room).value = transport.responseText;}
Small change, but caused a lot of frustration to find.
Cheers,
Ben.
