RE: Quick OT Javascript question. PART 2

Yup. Use this notation:

document.myform[colortype].value;

From the looks of your code, the generated HTML will look something like
this:

select

optionasas/option

input type=hidden ... /

optionasasa/option

input type=hidden ... /

optionasasas/option

input type=hidden ... /

optionsasasa/option

/select

Is that ok for you?

Subject: Quick OT Javascript question. PART 2


Another question:

In my previous question.. I needed to grab the currently selected option
from a select list.

I can now get the selected value using this code...

var SelOpt = document.myform.colors.options.selectedIndex;
var colortype = document.myform.colors[SelOpt].value;

I now need to get the value of a hidden input that is dynamically named from
the select list value...

Visusally it looks like this...

select name=colors
cfloop query=color_names
option value=#name##name#/option
input type=hidden name=#name# value=#rating#
/cfloop

I am looking to get the RATING value.
I can get the selected NAME using the code above, but my attempts to extract
the hidden variable have been unsuccessful.

I've tried:

var amt = 'document.myform.' + colortype + '.value';
and
var amt = document.myform.colortype.value';

I'm stumped.. Any suggestions???

Thanks,
Jeff

any reason you are puttting all these into hidden form values? Why not
just build and associative array and use that to lookuop the rating it
will save bandwidth, it will be valid, and look more professional. The
lookup would be the same AsociativeArrayName[selectedValue] will give
you the rating.

Adam,

I am retrofitting someone else's code.. :) There are a lot of other things I
am leaving out and this all has nothing to do with colors. What I wrote was
a super simplified version of what I am working on. I try not to ask
directly for an answer here but use the information given to me from my
question to formulate the answer I need. Hope that makes some sense..

Jeff

Yep.. I had to make a couple changes where my hidden list is looped AFTER
the Select Option loop but other than that, its similar to what the code
looks like. I'll give the document.myform[colortype].value; notation a go...
Thanks..

This is prohibited by specs, a select element is not allowed to contain
a input element.

You might better use either a 2d array - var tmp [[0,1],[0,1]] or a
struct - var tmp {name:'value',name:'value'}
