RE: Struts and Javascript question

[Nocera, Robert]

Thanks all, that did it.
I wasn't familiar with the document.formname.elements['fieldname'] notation.

Hi Rob - 

Haven't tried tried this with dots, but I had this
problem a long time ago with spaces.  Here's the three
ways (that I know of) to access a form element in
JavaScript:

document.formname.fieldname
document.formname.elements[fieldnum]
document.formname.elements['fieldname']

Using the field number is probably way too brittle for
your purposes, so I'd stick with:

document.formname.elements['data.fieldname']


FYI - you can do this with any javascript object. Chew
on that for a bit, when I did I had a javascript
object model epiphany.  

Hope this helps,
-jon

RE: Struts and Javascript question

[Nekkalapudi, Viplava]

You can try passing field using "this".
And get the object name mapped to this.
Something like this:

function getObject(myField) {
// myField is your dataObject
} 

And in form use this as the parameter to JavaScript.

Hello all,

I was wondering if anyone knows how to access a form element in javascript
that has a "." in the name of it.

For example, if I have a data bean included in a form beanm, I can access
fields in the data bean through tags using the "." notation as:

This create an input text box with the name "data.fieldname".
How can I access that object in Javascript?

var mydataobj = document.formname.data.fieldname;

doesn't work because the dot seems to be throwing off the parser (at least
in IE 5.0).

Any ideas besides creating an accessor in the form bean itself?

Thanks,
Rob

Hello all,

I was wondering if anyone knows how to access a form element in javascript
that has a "." in the name of it.

For example, if I have a data bean included in a form beanm, I can access
fields in the data bean through tags using the "." notation as:

This create an input text box with the name "data.fieldname".
How can I access that object in Javascript?

var mydataobj = document.formname.data.fieldname;

doesn't work because the dot seems to be throwing off the parser (at least
in IE 5.0).

Any ideas besides creating an accessor in the form bean itself?

Thanks,
Rob
