I've got an AJAX page which dynamically refreshes... this is what I use... seems to work well enough for our purposes... (NB - I'm using prototype for most of my stuff) var fin = document.forms["name of form"]; // replace "name of form" with the id of your form var SetCheckBox = f

I wrestled with asynchronous calls like you have (and quite honestly, found the structure associated with the onSuccess/onFailure lead to confusing code) I eventually settled on using var myAjax = new Ajax.Updater( , , {method: 'post', parameters: pars, evalScripts: true} ); (AFAIK, 'evalScript

In the sample code above, I suspect that you've given the wrong id the second input field... With that oops mistake corrected, I strongly recommend that (if you've not already done so), get Firefox and install the latest Firebug add- in (and I also recommend the Web Developer toolbar). I've found
