Javascript Objects problemby "Peter Newton" <c-newton(at)ihug.co.nz> |
|
Hello HWG Lifesavers, I always seem to have trouble addressing an object in Javascript. My current problem is this:- I am creating a webpage which contains a form on the left and a table on the right. The table is an example of where some of the form content will end up, and provides the person with an example of what it will look like before sending the form. I am using the ONBLUR trigger withing the form text input tag to call a function something like this:- <input type=text name=title onblur="showheading();"> The table will look something like:- <table name=example width="300px" border=0> <tr> <td name=heading></td> <td name=desc></td> </tr> </table> What I need the function to do is to assign the value of the forms title input field to a td cell named heading but all efforts to address the td named "heading" fails. and I havn't even started on accessing the form yet. Javascript for me is greate untill I need to access an object then its hours of hit and miss which is a real frustration. If anyone can see why I am having this problem a diagnosis and online cure would be most welcome. Many Thanks Peter Newton
