your fields should be enclosed in <form></form> tags.
let's say you have:
<form name="foo">
<input type="text" name="bar" size="1" maxlength="1" />
</form>
you'd reference that via:
document.foo.bar.value
if your elements have an ID attribute, you don't need to traverse the
DOM, and you can reference them directly.
e.g.
<input type="text" name="bar" id="bar" size="1" maxlength="1" />
you'd reference that via:
document.getElementById('bar')
anyway... wrap your form in <form></form> tags, and use the notation
above (document.formName.fieldName.value) to try and put something
together. You can still use the alert() example i gave you. just use
the formName.fieldName reference instead of the getElementById().
