the only reason the form object would not be available is if you pass it in
oncorrectly.
either of these should work for you:
<input type="button" onclick="selectAll('someID',this.form)"/>
or, if the onclick is not part of a form element, retrieve the object
directly:
<a href="#" onclick="selectAll('someID',document.forms['formName'])">

Subject: [xsl] why can not acces form element in javascript function
from xsl rendered html?
I have been trying to create a button [e g. select all] that
will select same value in select boxes/ radio buttons at a time
that are created by using xsl/xml. I call javascript function
selectAll on onClick() envent but can not access form element
from function, and throws null or not an object error. I assign
name to each select box dynamically
so as to have unique id for each select box in each row.
function selectAll( listID, form) {
//listID is an arrayList with list of IDs.
for ( i = 0; i<listID.length; i++)
// since each row in a table has select box, I use
currency_uniqueRecordID(eid fetched from database) as id for
select boxes when
// rendering in html during xml-xsl transformation.
var selectBox = 'currency_' + listID[i]; //name assigned
for select box when rendering html
//---this is not working. I have two options in each
select box...US and EUR, and want to select US value in all dropdown.
form.selectBox.options[1].selected = true;
}
}
The problem here is that the form element is not recognizable
from javascript. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
