IE not allowing adding diff proprties to an element, Y?

[Amzul]

hello all,

i have a form with 6 elemnt:

[CODE=html]<label><input type="radio" name="name_b" value="120x60" checked="checke d"/>120x60</label><!-- #1 -->
<input type="radio" name="name_b" value="468x60" />468x60</label><!--#2-->
<input type="text" size="6" id="wx" name="wx" value="200" checked="checke d"/><!--#3 notice the checked="checke d" i add -->
<input type="text" size="6" id="wy" name="wy" value="200" checked="checke d"/><!--#4 -->
<input type="text" size="40" id="path" name="path" value="i need this value" checked="checke d" /><!--#5-->
<input type="submit" value="go" /><!--#6-->[/CODE]

what i want to do (and manage to do it with FF but not with IE) is to get the elements that are sepose to b send to the server, here is the function i use

[CODE=javascript] x=document.form s['myform_name'];
f="elements i need from my form\n";
for(i=0; i<(x.elements.l ength-1); i++){//-1 cuz i dont need the submit button
if(x.elements[i].checked){//thats y i add the checked to the elements
f+=x.elements[i].value;
f+="\n";
}
alert(f);
}[/CODE]

is there a short way for IE as well ?

I do not think it is valid to have the checked attribute any type of input fields other than checkboxes. That is probably what the "if(x.eleme nts[i].checked)" if test is failing and causing that code to not be executed.

i know its not valid, just wonder why IE cant be more flexible, or maybe there is somthing similler i can use to di the same.

i want the form data without submiting it to the server, keep it on the clint side.
just wonder what if it was a realy long form with alot of elements....

Use, for example, the class attribute instead. Then use className to check the class of the form elements.
