Passing form objects to a function 1

[awingnut]

I know how to pass a form to a function but I can find how to pass 'this' object to a function.

<input type="checkbox" name="carrier[0]" onClick="myFunction(this.form.carrier[0])">

The above gets an error telling me 'carrier' has no properties. I need to be able to set the 'value' among other things for the object. Can someone help me with the right syntax? TIA.

onClick="myFunction(this.form.elements['carrier[0]'])"

why not just use

onClick="myFunction(this)"

[tt]( <P> <B>)¹³ * (<P> <.</B>)[/tt]

Thanks for the reply. I didn't fully understand what 'this' was used for. Now I think I see and it works fine.

this" just means, the current object. it's a self-reference.
