Send javascript variable via html form

[hazelsisson]

Hello!
Here's the problem: I want to send a javascript variable via a html form by using a hidden value, but the value doesn't get sent as it should and only the default value, "TEST" gets sent.

The javascript function, "delUser" is:

function delUser()
{
var removeUserid = document.privForm.privUsers.options[document.privForm.privUsers.selectedIndex].value;

alert ("removeUserid = " + removeUserid); 

var myConfirm = confirm("Are you you want to remove " +document.privForm.privUsers.options[document.privForm.privUsers.selectedIndex].text+ " from the list of users?");
 
 if (myConfirm == true)
 {
  document.remForm.submit();
 }
 else
 {//nothing
 }
}

The html form is:

<FORM NAME=&quot;remForm&quot; ACTION=&quot;...removeUser&quot; ONSUBMIT=&quot;remForm.myRemove.value= removeUserid;&quot;>
<INPUT TYPE=&quot;HIDDEN&quot; NAME=&quot;myRemove&quot; VALUE=&quot;TEST&quot;>
<INPUT TYPE=&quot;BUTTON&quot; VALUE=&quot;Remove User&quot; onClick=&quot;delUser();&quot;>
</FORM>

The javascript alert box displays the variable correctly, so there is some reason that the form is not including it when it is submitted. Everything else works OK, i.e. the correct location is reached on submitting.
Any ideas where I may be going wrong!?

Thank-you,
Hazel

why not insert remForm.myRemove.value= removeUserid; in the function itself (before the submit() command)...

Known is handfull, Unknown is worldfull
