I knew there was a better way!!!
Still, the JS reference at Netscape says I can have the eval on the left
side of a '='.
http://developer.netscape.com/docs/manuals/js/client/jsref/toplev.htm#1063795
Example 4. In the following example, the setValue function uses eval to
assign the value of the variable newValue to the text field textObject:
function setValue (textObject, newValue) {
eval ("document.forms[0]." + textObject + ".value") = newValue
}
So am I miss reading the above example??
