We thought about that, but at first blush that seemed worse. The biggest problem is that each page is going to have N number of spans containing N number of data relating to the provider. So the popup getting called from page one may have to update...
Provider Name Provider Address and the popup getting called from page two may have to update... Provider Name That's the real problem. As far as the form goes, the biggest problem is how to get the name of the form to be somehow passed into the JavaScript in a way that the same JavaScript can be used for multiple forms when all we want to do is change one value. Or maybe we should give in and use forms[0].X, etc. Preston >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 11/19/2005 11:57:50 AM >>> Preston CRAWFORD wrote: > Yeah, no easy solution for this.

I might be missing something, but why can't you write one Javascript function that knows how to serialize a form into an object and pass it to a callback, and just include that function in each popup?
