background color change with javascript

[fluxdemon]

I need to find a way to change the background color of input text boxes. Is my syntax close to correct?

var tmpName = autoquote.elements;

...
tmpName.style.backgroundColor="yellow";

Stuff listed above isn't working...

You haven't said what browser it's not working in... But some browsers require a full DOM path to the form:

var tmpName = document.forms['autoquote'].elements[i];

Hope this helps,
