You can do it in many ways: 1. Create an empty placeholder for hidden input (div at the bottom of your form). You can then easily replace content of this div and don't care about multiple inputs: addElement: function () { $("totalsContainer").update('<input type="hidden" id="finaltons" value="' + totaltotal + '"></input>'); } 2. Create this hidden input in your form on server (in other words, input should always exist), then just replace its value: addElement: function () { $("finaltons").setValue(totaltotal); } 3. Combine both ways: check for existence of element (if not exists - then create it), then update its value: addElement: function () { var input = $("finaltons"); if (!input) { input = new Element({type: "hidden", id: "finaltons"}); $("formtons").insert(input); } input.setValue(totaltotal); } -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prototype & script.aculo.us" group.
