[PHP] Re: Multiple Entry SELECT and JavaScript interaction

2001-11-20 Thread Daniel Berwig

You can't use brackets in this case. The Javascript won't reconize the name
of the form element. Try using another caracter that can be reconized, like
underscore.

 I have a curious problem that I don't have a clue how to solve that's
 probably simple but I can't find it documented anywhere. It might be the
 first PHP-induced limitation I've run into...

 In order to allow multiple entry on a SELECT form object, the name of
the
 form has to end with the brackets [], but then when I do that I can't
refer
 to it from within JavaScript because as a variable name it becomes
illegal.
 I have to be able to refer to the SELECT object to change its contents
based
 on another form object.

 I've tried all kinds of things to work around this, but I'm stuck. Any
ideas
 out there?

 Thanks,
 Sean

I almost forgot that... you can refer to the form element by the objects
array, like this:

document.form[0].elements[1].value
