HELP -Onclick handlers for form elements generated using Response.Write

[sorcha]

I have an ASP which displays records from a database for update. As the user needs to view all the records at once, and an unknown quantity of records is returned, I use the Response.Write method to display the data in form elements (checkbox,textbox etc) using a sequential row number, to create unique element names. However when I try and use an onclick event handler on an element it does not recognise the elements value. Any ideas why?

I have logical solution that will work OK;
Create a BIG string that will contain all fields data with field delimiter set in between.
Use Array for this BIG string;
Also append Coli_Rowj format at end;
This will tell you which cell in table you are. irrespective if rows contain controls or not.

When update/Changing cells you update this big string as well; and append "W" to BIG string to know data changed in cell; otherwise leave "R" to BIG string;

Update data using BIG string;

You will need InStr and Split VBScript functins to
achieve this.

you posted to a thread that nobody cares about. it is almost 4 years old.
I do believe her problem has already been fixed.

[rparmar]

could tell me where it is fixed,
so i can look at solution,
THX very much.

[scoutt]

well if you seen the date I believe she found a fix but hasn't reported back since then. your guess is as good as mine. if you have a question than jsut post one, don't excpect an answer on one that is no longer valid.

Well, obviously somebody (rparmar) cares about it.

I think the proper grammar would be "nobody ELSE cares about.":P

Back to the problem...
Sorcha was prolly doing something like this...

while not(recSet.eof)
Response.write "<input type='text' name='" & intRow & "FieldName' onclick='javascript: document.myForm.FieldName.value = ""newValue"";'>
intRow = intRow+1
recSet.moveNext
wend


She would have had to do a...
document.myForm." & intRow & "FieldName.value......
to get it to work.
