variable question 2

[aperfectcircle]

In something like [red]document.form1.fieldname.value = "text"[/red], is there any way to set "fieldname" from a variable?

 

[mackey333]

yes, make the variable you want containing the field name, then do this:

eval("document.form1." + fieldname + ".value = 'text'" -Greg :-Q

Use eval("document.form1."+fieldnamevariable+".value=`"+somethingvariable+"`"

Greg looks like we`re looking at this at almost the same time

what about this?

var name="fieldname"
document.form1[name].value = 'text'

(so, name is a string & might be passed from somewhere..) Victor
