Select box text value

[gerkintrigg]

I am trying to work out how to get the text value of a drop down box. I am using the following code but it doesn't seem to work:

onchange="products_price.value=this.text;"

 

I just need to get the "visible" part of the select box and use it as a number variable to select a price (see it in action here: http://ww.magic2k.com/alcolim/ )

If you set an ID for the select element you can use:

 

onchange="document.getElementById('elements_id').value=this.text;"

 

If the form has a name:

 

onchange="documents.forms['form_name'].value=this.text;"

 

Or if you work out the form number:

 

onchange="document.forms[0].products_price.value=this.text;"

 

Remember though the form number starts from 0 and not 1!
