Re: Question: arrays and form elements

Nope. Is there a problem you are having with using that syntax? If you are having trouble with referencing the fields with javascript, you can't use the "regular" syntax you are used to.: document.formname.fieldname[] That will give you an error because of the brackets. In javascript you'll need to reference field names with brackets like this: document.formname.elements["fieldname[]"] On Dec 30, 2004, at 6:48 AM, Stuart Felenstein wrote:

Generally, when I set up a form where, for example, I'll be taking multiple selections from a list I would set the variable / element name as "myvar[]". So I have the brackets [] after the variable name to make it an array. What I want to know is there a way to get around the use of this syntax ? If the variable name was just "myvar" (no brackets) is there a way for me to still grab all the selections and put them into an array ? Hope this question is clear.
