I didn't check the script fully after removing the HTML comments... 

If you select the New user radio button the form element names are changed as intended but if you then change it back to existing it throws an error: document.form1.fldTitlea2 is null or not an object.  Same with the email address radio buttons but I'm sure it will be the same error so when one is fixed so is the other.

Anyone able to take a look and suggest what I've done wrong?

Hi Chriss,

Have you tried taking out the HTML comments in the middle of your JS code, i.e. the two lines:

-->
<!-- used for selecting email new/existing

I feel it may have something to do with them.
