Another way you can access these is by using this function.
Stephen is being polite - he means the 'correct' way ;-)
document.getElementByName('name');
or
document.getElementById('id');
As I recall w3 sees ByName as standard but Mozilla(and many others) only
support ById, the last time I checked.
Any ways around this?
thanx

Re: [PHP] Problem with Javascript:...submit()
I'm just taking a wild guess...
but I'm guessing that if you set a name with spaces, it'll be replaced
with "_"(underscore).
A couple of ways around this is to
1) figure out a way to assign a one-word name for all your
books(e.g. Code, ID number, etc.)
2) generate a hash code(e.g. md5($row['LITERATURE_title'])) will
generate a one word(no spaces).
If this is going to be a library application, you can always use
"ISBNX"(no spaces, no dashes), since the idea is that every book
has a unique ISBN number

If you've got a row ID number or something, just call the form "lit[id]"
(replacing [id] with the ID number), because I don't think a form name
can start with a number. Otherwise you could sha1() the title and use
that as the identifier, or simply remove all spaces...
