Re: multiselects and arrays

you can have access to everything, using the following construct: window.document.forms[i].elements[j].name and window.document.forms[i].elements[j].value so, for example : <html><body><form> <input type="text" name="aaa[1]"> <input type="text" name="aaa[2]"> </form></body></html> the first input text can be accessed as window.document.forms[0].element[1] while the second can be accessed as window.doucment.forms[0].elements[2] -Stathis. elias wrote: > > How can i access names with '[]' w/o eval() or seeking in form's element? > > -elias > > "Rouvas Stathis" <rouvas@di.uoa.gr> wrote in message > news:3AFAB6B7.BA2A23EC@di.uoa.gr... > > Actually, you *can* use brackets ([]) in names and javascript can handle > > them just fine. > > -Stathis. > > > > Max Vysotskiy wrote: > > > > > > Hi. > > > Why doesn't PHP convert mutiselect values with plain names (not > array-like) > > > to arrays.
