Hi,
I am retrieving data from a database and displaying results on a html so
the user can edit them, I am sending the html form back to the server as an
array, i.e on my html for I might have 10 name fields so in the html code
all name fields are named name[] then I can iterate through the array on the
server. My problem isn't strictly php but more html / javascript. if I have
a load of form field elements all named name[] how do I access them to do
javascript validation? i.e document.form.name[].value doesn't work!
Cheers
Matt
Please wrap your lines.
document.form.elements['name[]'].value

Mmmm that didn't work either!
Thanks anyway

Please reply to the list, and not just an individual person.
Anywho, if you want to address an element whose name contains special characters, the above way does work.
If these are check boxes, you have to loop thru them. If these are text, you will have to loop thru all the elements on the page, and 'look' for them. etc.
