| 10. 1. 4. Accessing form Fields |
|
|
Every form field is contained in the form's elements collection. |
You can access the various fields in the collection by using their name attributes or their positions in the collection: |
|
var firstField = oForm.elements[0]; //get the first form field
var myTextbox = oForm.elements["textbox1"];//get the field with the name "textbox1"
|
|
Accessing an element by its name: every form field becomes a property of the form itself and can be accessed directly by using its name |
|
var myTextbox1 = oForm.textbox1; //get the field with the name "textbox1"
|
|
If the name has a space in it, use bracket notation instead: |
|
var myTextbox = oForm["text box 1"]; //get the field with the name "text box 1"
|
