If you puy that javascript into a static html page does it work?
If so compare the static page's working javascript to the script generated javascript.
Did you backslash any single or double quotes? It could be that perl treats them like
this :
Original javascript :
d1_12 -= eval('theform.num'+i).value
But it gets printed as :
d1_12 -= eval(theform.num+i).value
Unless you do this in your script
d1_12 -= eval(\'theform.num\'+i).value
Could be, try that and see if it works

Subject: Simple Question
I have a cgi that gets variables from a form (only numeric) and that form is
sent to a text file to get the information that I need later. What I'm
having problems with is that I need some fields to add themselves and
display different totals on the same form when a modification is made to one
of those fileds. I used a Javascript and tested it on an html, it works, but
it doesn't seem to work on my cgi. Is there something I'm doing wrong, is
there something else I can do?
Your help will be appreciated. Here is the javascript I'm using and also I
attach the cgi.
Thanks in advance.
Janfek Esquivel.
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
var totalBoxes = 11;
function updateTotal(theform) {
var d1_12 = 0;
for (var i = 1; i < totalBoxes + 1; i++) {
d1_12 -= eval('theform.num'+i).value;
}
theform.d1_12.value = -d1_12;
}
// -->
</script>
