Hello my friends.

This is a htm page that contains a form open in window popUp ( page daughter ).

This form insert a value in the one hidden field called "tec", in other form open in the page mother.

As you can see the select contains multiple attribute.

The problem is that by selecting more names from select tec form page daughter, in the hidden field called "tec" form page mother I have only the first name, for example:

I select value gabriele and giuseppe form page daughter, in the hidden field called "tec" form page mother I have only gabriele.

Why?
Can you help me ???

Code:

<script language="Javascript">

<!--

function insertf1(f1) {
   
   if ( FORM1.tec.value.length > 0 && FORM1.opr.value.length > 0 ) {
        window.opener.document.FORM1.tec.value=f1;
        alert("Dati correttamente salvati.");
        window.close();

    } else {
    
        alert("Dati obbligatori."); 
        FORM1.tec.focus(); 

   }
   
}
   
// -->
</script>
</head>

<body>

<form name="FORM1">

<select size="15" name="tec" multiple>

For a multiple select element, you need to loop over the options and check which ones are selected.

Hi acoder, thanks x your reply.

I write this for your suggestion:

Code:

    function options_value_selezionati_join(lista)
    {
	    var s = "";
	    for(var i = 0; i < lista.options.length; i++)
	    
	    {
		    if(lista.options[i].selected) s += "-" + lista.options[i].value;  
          
	    }
	    
	    return s.substr(1);
	    
   }

...

            <a href="javascript:(options_value_selezionati_join(document.FORM1.tec)+';'+options_value_selezionati_join(document.FORM1.opr));">

The values of select it's correct.... but not open alert "OK" and not close window popup and not insert a value in the hidden field called "tec" in form open in the page mother.
.... :(

Can you help me?

All you've done is constructed a string without setting it to anything.

Not working...

Code:

function options_value_selezionati_join(lista)
    {
	    
	    var s = "";
	    for(var i = 0; i < lista.options.length; i++)
	    
	    {

		    if(lista.options[i].selected) s += "-" + lista.options[i].value; 
		    

		    	    
          
	    }	    
	    
	            window.opener.document.options_value_selezionati_join(document.FORM1.tec)=lista;

       
   
	    
   }

...

<a href="javascript:options_value_selezionati_join(document.FORM1.tec); window.close();">

Try:
[code=javascript]window.opener.document.FORM1.tec.value = s;[/code]Can you see where you were going wrong?

  	    }         	    
		        window.opener.document.FORM1.tec.value = s;   
                alert("OK.");
                window.close();  
	               
   
	    
   }

thanks, working but:

Code:

 

<a href="javascript:options_value_selezionati_join(document.FORM1.tec+';'+document.FORM1.opr);">

Response whit 'options.lengh' is null or not object... why?

The function is expecting a list/select object, not a string, so pass in one select reference.

I need pass this string:

<a href="javascript:options_value_selezionati_join(do cument.FORM1.tec+';'+document.FORM1.opr)">

Any idea?

Pass two lists instead of a string and then loop over both and concatenate the string inside the function.

	    }
	    return s.substr(1);
    }

    
function go()
{
    var s1 = options_value_selezionati_join(document.FORM1.tec)
    var s2 = options_value_selezionati_join(document.FORM1.opr);
    
    if(s1 == "" || s2 == "")
    {
        alert("Stop!");
        return;
    }
    
    var s = s1 + ";" + s2;

    if(window.opener && window.opener.document.FORM1.tec) window.opener.document.FORM1.tec.value = s;  
    alert("OK."); 
    window.close();
}    

   
// -->
</script>

...

<a href="#" onclick="go();return false;">
            <img border="0" src="save.gif" width="84" height="16"></a>
