: you can take this a step further. you don't even need to
: know the number of the form in the forms array. just pass
: an object reference. additionally, lose the onclick event
: handler on the input button and move the collectInfo() function
: call to the onsubmit event handler of the <form> tag:
:
: <form action="" method="get"
: onsubmit="collectInfo(this.form)">
:
: then, with some slight changes to your collectInfo() function,
: you're done:
:
: function collectInfo(oForm)
: {
: var elementName = 'myName';
: var oElement = oForm.elements[elementName];
: alert('The value is ' + oElement.value);
: }

Yeah this makes even more sense.
Thanks
