[Javascript] forms and js

[Matt Barton]

Ugh.  Don't like the look of that in the slightest.  Special chars in
element names?  Not for the likes of me...

Anyway... you could try (and my usual caveat[*] applies) something like
this:

<!-- ************************ -->
<form name="TESTTEST" action="">
<input type="text" name="(TEST)">
</form>

<script>
sControlName = "(TEST)";
TESTTEST[sControlName].value = 'HELLO';
</script>

<!-- ************************ -->

HTH

Matt

[*] Usual caveat: I've not tried this myself, and I've no idea if it'll
work, but it might help.

The below code wont work because of the brackets in the form name. I cant do
anything about those brackets the nature of the program means there there.
How can I write to that form text field with JS if brackets (or other
special characters) are there?


<form NAME="TESTTEST" action="">
<input type="text" name="(TEST)">
</form>

<SCRIPT>
TESTTEST.(TESTS).value = 'HELLO';
</SCRIPT>
