Object names with square bracket

[Nalpo]

Hi,
i want to update several Textboxes by reading the value of another
Box. For that i use the following small script:

<form name="form1" method="POST">
<input type="text" name="xx" value ="1"
onBlur="documen t.form1.tex1.va lue=document.fo rm1.xx.value">< br>
<input name="tex1" type="text" size=16 maxlength=80 value="1">
</form>

Everything works fine, but for my PHP-Script i need square brackets [
]. If i try to add them, my Script got an error:

<form name="form1" method="POST">
<input type="text" name="xx" value ="1"
onBlur="documen t.form1.tex[1].value=document .form1.xx.value "><br>
<input name="tex[1]" type="text" size=16 maxlength=80 value="1">
</form>

Whats wrong?

Thanks!

Re: Object names with square bracket

Hello

This is a common issue.

Access the named object from javascript as:

theForm["elementNam e"].value = xyz .... or
theForm.element s["elementNam e"].value = "asdasda";

Example:

theForm["tex[1]"].value = xxxxxxxxxxxx... .............

HTH,
