Stephen,

I just put up the same page but with some inputted numbers in the 2nd and 3rd cols to make it a little more clear. I need to be able to do the same on the fly with all other cols.

Thanks,

steve

Hi all.
Could use some help with javascript.
I am loading up a page with a variable number of columns depending on selections made on a previous screen. Each column contains identical textboxes which have identical names so php will deal with them as arrays (like singles[], parents[], children[], etc in this case) when submitted. When the page loads, I need to multiply a value from another textbox (that is not part of an array) by each of these boxes in a column, add the totals up, and enter the final value into yet another box. My problem is that I don't know how to reference the array boxes in javascript since they all have the same name. I need to do it in js so changes can be made and calcs done in the browser.
In other words, how do I tell javascript to use the boxes in col 1 for the first calc, then move on to the boxes in col 2 for the next calc...
There are also a gazillion other textboxes on the same page which are not used in the calc, so I don't think I can refernce them using form element numbers.
How do i do what I want to do?
steve
