js question

• bakalek

  Hi, i have a form with:

  i need to send ithe value with onClick js function on submit:
  onClick="toDB('state', this.form.f:1700196605.value);

  Of course it gives me an error because of the name: f:1700196605

  any way to substitute : (colon) character in the onClick call ? i cant touch the form names.
  If not, than maybe there is a way to post value by input ID ?

  its killing me here ... .

  thanks!

  try this.form['big crappy name'].value

  or with prototype $F('big crappy name').value

  i am pretty sure the colon in invalid

  yeah the name if the input filed is : f:123456

  but i think i fixed it:

  this.form['f:1700196605'].value

  this works ! i used to put a dot after form and it wasnt working.

  Thank you all!
