You could replace the whole element by doing something like: element[i] = new Option(newvalue) I'm not sure on the parameter specifics.
What I usually do is use a hidden field and put the calculated value into it. -----Original Message----- From: Rose, Israel [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, April 17, 2002 5:57 PM To: CF-Server Subject: RE: Returning data from Javascript to CF Modules Thanks Dave, it's close but it still doesn't get directly to my needs. I've tried accessing the elements array and assigning the calculated value to the element[i].value but still a no-go. Thanks for the thought.
