  1. Hi,

    There is a button set for onlick="moreFields".  Also theName is defined as the name value of the children of the "workplease" div.

    I have redone the whole page is valid tableless xhtml and everything is working fine. 

    Now,  I have two fields "serialNumber" and "productModel".  Everytime the button is clicked these two fields (inside a div) are cloned with "serialNumber1"/"productModel1", "serialNumber2"/"productModel2", etc.

    I made a hidden input field whose value increases everytime the button is clicked so I can use this value in the mail script to know how many values to pull like $_POST['serialNumber'.counter].  Is there a better way of doing this?  Hard for me to explain this, I'm learning as I go.   

    Thanks,

    Jacob
  2. Hi,

    I been pretty much given the job of doing the backend of our company's website because the web guy was a victim of downsizing.  So far I've got the results of our registration form being packaging in .xml and being sent to an email address using php.  Now I need to be able to click a button and add extra product/serial number text fields.  Please have a look below and lend a hand if you can.

    This is the javascript...I think I am having a problem with "var newField = newFields.childNodes".  As it is the new fields are appearing but they are lacking the "counter" value appended to their names.
    [code]var counter = 0;

    function moreFields() {
    counter++;
    var newFields = document.getElementById('workplease').cloneNode(true);
    newFields.id = '';
    newFields.style.display = 'block';
    var newField = newFields.childNodes;
    for (var i=0;i<newField.length;i++) {
    var theName = newField[i].name
    if (theName)
    newField[i].name = theName + counter;
    }
    var insertHere = document.getElementById('overhere');
    insertHere.parentNode.insertBefore(newFields,insertHere);
    }[/code]

    HTML
    [code]
      <div id="workplease" style="display:none">
      <div align="left"><a style="font-size:xx-small" onclick="parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.removeChild(parentNode.parentNode);" >Remove Product</a></div>
      <table style="padding-bottom: 5px" width="600" border="0" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1" class="body">
      <tr>
                        <td width="310" height="24" valign="top"> <div align="left">Product/Model
                        </div></td>
                        <td width="11" valign="top"><div align="left"><font color="#FF0000">*</font></div></td>

                            <input name="SerialNumber" type="text" id="Serial Number" size="30" />
                          </div></td>
                      </tr>
    <tr>&nbsp;</tr>
        </table>
    </div>
    <table id="overhere" width="600" border="0" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1" class="body" style="margin-bottom:5px">
    <tr><td><div align="left">&nbsp;Add product?<div></td></tr>
    <tr><td><div align="left"><input style="background-color:#f4f4f4;padding-top:2px" type="button" id="moreFields" onclick="moreFields" value="Click Here!" /></div></td></tr>
    </table>
    </div>[/code]

    I got this working fine (with counter appended to the name value) after I removed all the table tags but I don't have time to do a total rewrite of this (I don't know how to use Dreamweaver).  Please help me :D
