Give the link an id and then change the href:
[code=javascript]var link = document.getEle mentById("link" );
link.href = "page2.html?val ="+sel;[/code]

[sindhu]

i'm stuck at this point itself.

i'm able to fetch the value in button using

<script lang=javascript>
             var sel= document.frm.btn_id.value
</script>

But in href=" page2.html?val= sel" that value will not be fetched but a blank value or "?val=sel" appears.

is the way i'm including the value right or its different

[acoder]

You could use document.getEle mentById("btn_h id").value to get the value.

Pass it using page2.html?val= ...

Hello i'm able to fetch the value of the selected dropdown box from the dropdown and save it in a 'temporary variable'(like assigning it to a hidden button value) in the submenu frame. now i'm calling another page from submenu using href="page2"
during this call i want to pass the selected index value stored in temporary variable.

how do i do this in href="page2.htm l?"

What do i need to include after the question mark?

the temporary value is in


<input name="btn_hid" id="btn_hid" style="position :absolute; left: 17px; top: 106px;visibilit y=hidden">
</input>

and i'm calling the page in href as below

<a onmouseover="sw apImage('img_md ','','Imagest1. jpg',1)" target="right_b ottom" href="page2.htm l" >
<img src= "Images2.jp g" alt="img2" name="img_md" border="0"/>
</a>



href ib bold is the point from where i'm passing the value to page2.html and assigning it to dropdown in that page

thanks

The dropdown is in all the pages that i'm displaying in frame3 by using submenu.the selections are

[CODE=html]<select id="ddbx" class="textBlac kMedium" style="width: 87px" name="ddbx" onchange="switc h">
<option>OP 1</option>
<option>OP 2</option>
<option>OP 3</option>
<option>OP 4</option>
</select>
[/CODE]
now when i select 1in submenu, i'm loading the frame3 with 'page1' in which i've the dropdown shown above.
now if i change the selection to 'OP 2' in the dropdown, and select submenu item to load 'page2' in the frame three replacing 'page1' , i want the dropdown in that page to be having the selcted value 'OP 2'.

In your onchange function call, get the selected value of the drop down, e.g. document.getEle mentById("ddbx" ).value (you will need to set the value of each option). Then access the frame, e.g. parent.right_bo ttom and set the value of the drop down by setting its value.

<option>OP 3</option>
<option>OP 4</option>
</select>
[/CODE]

now if i change the selection to 'OP 2' in the dropdown, and select submenu item to load 'page2' in the frame three replacing 'page1' , i want the dropdown in that page to be having the selcted value 'OP 2'.

below is the code to change the pages in frame3

[HTML]<tr style="width:11 1px;height:30px "><td >
<a onmouseover="sw apImage()" onmouseout="swa pImgRestore()" target="right_b ottom" href="page1html " >

now i wnt the changed value in dropdown of any page to be reflected in the pages after changing the submenu selection

I've split and merged some posts into this new thread.

Post the code for the drop down box. When you say you want to pass to the page, where should it be available? Does some element's value need to be set? Show the code for the page that the value has to be passed to.
