Problem with onclick() event

[ze colmeia]

Hi all,

I have a little javascript function that assigns the value from a parent window to a field on a iframe. The function is on the parent page and its called by a button onclick() event on the other page. It works fine the first time i click on the button but if i click again the value isn't assigned anymore.

This is the function on the parent page:

<SCRIPT language=javascript>

function Id(){
	var id = frm1.PersonId.value;
	return id;
}

</SCRIPT>

This is how its called on the other page:

<BUTTON class=MsoNavAddNew id=addRecord onclick=PersonId.value=parent.Id(); MsoTextAlign="General"></BUTTON>

I thought an onclick() event would always work when called but perhaps not :(

Any ideias about this? Thanks in advance!

You need to refer to elements properly. Is frm1 defined properly somewhere? If not use document.forms["frm1"] to refer to the form.

Again, in the case of the onclick code, you could change it to something like:
[html]<BUTTON class="MsoNavAd dNew" id="addRecord" onclick="this.f orm.PersonId.va lue=parent.Id() ;" MsoTextAlign="G eneral"></BUTTON>[/html]
