To get the Value of the drop down box in function

[toamanz]

Guys,

I am having a tough time getting the value of this drop down box. Here is the drop down code i got..

 

<select size="1" name="DDList" id="DDList"

onChange="xajax_changeScrapAccess(this.options[this.options.selectedIndex].value)">

{$DD_options}

 

Where DD_options is as below

<option selected>friends</option>

<option>friends of friends</option>

<option>everyone</option>

 

Now here is the function

 

function xajax_changeScrapAccess($arg)

{

 

$access_mode = $arg['scrpr'];

 

if($access_mode=="everyone")

{

$access_mode = "EVERY";

}

}

 

I just want to get the value in $access_mode liek if the user select private, i should get the value private in access_mode variable?

 

Help will be much appreciated

 

Thanks

Aman

PHP wont see any form variables unless a form is posted. You can do this in the background using JavaScript...

 

You seem to be confusing client-side and server-side scripting.

this --> $access_mode = $arg['scrpr'];

should just be --> $access_mode = $arg;
