Finding a checkbox control in a table

[drdexter33]

Hello.

who can tell me how to interate through an HTML table and find a checkbox control?


Here's what I have so far:

for(var i=1;i<document.all.htmlTable.rows.length;i++)
{
for(var j=0;j<document.all.htmlTable.rows.cells.length;j++)
{
}
}

The checkbox is always in cell[0]...

Thanks.

Doug

First, document.all is IE only, and not a good choice for writing compatible Javascript code.

I would use document.forms['formname'].elements to search through the form elements array, and then check either for the name you're after (or an identifying part of it), or the type checkbox.
