Re: [WEB400] Javascript newbie problem

Ken

Many thanks for your continued help. 

I inserted your code in my page and it wrote

undefined

in the page.

It did not object to  ('AFIELD.007-016')

I have to confess that, with my very limited experience of Javascript 
(just over the weekend),  I don't understand what your code is trying to 
do.

It has an "if" yet no conditional operator.  What does the

(document.getElementsByName) 

before the first brace do?

Many thanks

Rob
