parameters problem

[Lefu]

hello my friends,

 

I have this:

function setmadeid(fieldname,fieldvalue)

{

document.joe.fieldname.value= fieldvalue;

document.joe.submit();

}

 

it is just a function to receive field name and value, my problem is telling javascript that the first parameter is the name of my textbox which I am changing the value.

 

Can some one help me, just trying to reuse this function for many all the fields instead of having to redeclare extra functions, help please!!

Give the field an id instead and do:

 

function setmadeid(obj_id, field_value)
{
document.getElementById(obj_id).value = field_value
document.joe.submit()
}

You might try this:

document.forms['joe'].elements[fieldname].value = fieldvalue

too.
