other selects and checks their selected values/indexes(which ever makes more
sense)
elements = new Array(
getElementById('select_1'),
getElementById('select_2'),
getElementById('select_3'),
getElementById('select_4'),
...
...
);
Then a function that you call with onChange of all those selects.
for (....) {
if elements.selected index/value = the current selected index/value {
alert("something");
}
}
Hows about that?

Subject: ot: _javascript_ question
hello good peoples...
i have a _javascript_ question, that really aims for a coupla things...
1. can this be done elegantly?
2. if not, then whats the best non-elegant way?
3. if so, a bit of a point in the right direction...i can READ
_javascript_, most of the time, and tell ya whats going on...however, i
SUCK, with a capital freakin' S at writing it...anyway, im sick of
bugging mike t. all the time with my _javascript_ questions...so i
figured i try here, and im sure he'll read this...but whatever, :)
anyway...
i have, lets say...
1. 15 select elements on a page.
2. each is named uniquely.
3. all are filled with 1-15 as the values (indexes 0-14)
4. if a user chooses, 14 in element 1 (index 0) i need to prevent them
from choosing 14 in ANY other element.
i (think) i can do it with something sort of LONG and VERY unelegant inline
(this.selectedIndex==0){2.something.Whatever};"
onChange() event, but i think there has to be a BETTER way to do it.
id love to learn this, is there a place to get this kind of _javascript_
learning? ive picked up EVERY thing i can about a lot of web
programming languages, just cant crack the _javascript_ code...
help ??? :)
cheers.
