Getting the value of one textbox in an array.

[Andyza]

I have a form with a number of textboxes. Each textbox has the same
name.

<input type="text" name="txtTest" value="1" onclick="GetVal ue()">
<input type="text" name="txtTest" value="2" onclick="GetVal ue()">
<input type="text" name="txtTest" value="3" onclick="GetVal ue()">
<input type="text" name="txtTest" value="4" onclick="GetVal ue()">
<input type="text" name="txtTest" value="5" onclick="GetVal ue()">

To loop through the textboxes and retrieve the value of each box I use
this loop:

<script language="javas cript">
function GetValue() {
for (i=0; i<document.form s[0].txtTest.length ; i++){
alert(document. forms[0].txtTest[i].value)
}
}
</script>

GetValue() gives me an array with the values of all the textboxes. How
do I get the function to return JUST the value of the textbox that I
clicked on?

Example, if I click on the third textbox it will display an alert with
3 and if I click on the first textbox it will display an alert with 1.

Thanks

function getValue (input) {
alert(input.val ue);
}

<input onclick="getVal ue(this);" ...>
