Thanks for the quick Info, this is for a youth sports league and
they want a demo next weekend. This is the last page. Ok so I want
to paraphrase to be sure I understand... I want to see it work first
before I put conditions on the change......
First I should change my <INPUT> tag....
From:
<INPUT name="Weight" type="text" id="Weight" size="5" maxlength="3">
To:
<INPUT name="Weight" type="text" id="Weight2" size="5" maxlength="3"
onChange='checkWeight ("Weight2", "Star2")'>
AND
<INPUT type="checkbox" name="Star" value="True">
To:
<INPUT type="checkbox" name="Star" id="Star2" value="True">
Then add somewhere at the beginnning:
<script language="JavaScript1.1">
function checkWeight (WeightID, StarID)
{
var textField = document.getElementById (textFieldID);
var checkBox = document.getElementById (checkBoxID);
checkBox = True;
}
</script>
Thanks for the help in advance....

be on another field (possibly on another row) before the checkbox
gets checked. Anyway ...

This can be done with a simple counter in your ASP.
