I think you need to use:
document.forms [0].aboutHIV....
(assuming that it is the first form on the page... otherwise you will need
to actually specify which form it is... you can do that by passing the form
into the javascript function)
rather than just:
document.aboutHIV....
the inputs are elements of the form, not of the document. Otherwise I think
your javascript should work.

Subject: off topic: multiple form entries
I have a servlet which takes parameters from web pages, and I would like to
be able to have input fields which submit multiple values,
i.e. I would like to be able to associate one submission with another, so if
the
user selects one thing, another value will be submitted also...
I have tried this but it's obviously wrong. Do I need to write a function?
I tried a function too but that didn't work...
<INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="about_HIV" VALUE="no" TYPE="hidden"
NAME="transmission_entry" VALUE="yes"> no<BR>
or the function:
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- Script Begin
function submitFunction() {
if (document.about_HIV.about_HIV.value == "no"){
document.aboutHIV.transmission_entry.value = "yes"
}
else{
document.aboutHIV.transmission_entry.value = "nil"
}
}
// Script End -->
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<FORM NAME="about_HIV" ACTION="../servlet/MyServlet4" METHOD=GET
TARGET="_self">
<P class=question>Would you like information about<BR>
what HIV is and it's affects?</FONT><BR></P>
<INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="about_HIV" VALUE="yes" CHECKED> yes<BR>
<INPUT TYPE="radio" NAME="about_HIV" VALUE="no"> no<BR>
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="info_known" VALUE="done">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="transmission_entry" VALUE="">
<P><INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="submit" onSubmit="submitFunction()">
</FORM>
Thanks folks. D Lampon
