form's field number

[abs]

Input field of the form. How to check which number this field has ? I mean
the order number, like variable elementNumber in
document.forms[formnumber].elements[elementNumber] ? Is it possible to check
without looping and comparing some attributes in every loop ?

Best regards,
ABS

So why not use the field's "name" attribute?
c

As I wrote, the fields might have the same names, like:

<input type="text" name="myname[]">
<input type="text" name="myname[]">

<input type="text" name="myname[]">
<input type="text" name="myname[]">

document.forms[0].elements["myname[]"][0]
document.forms[0].elements["myname[]"][1]

I still don't understand why you need the index. On event, pass the `this'
reference or use `event.target || event.srcElemen t' and you don't need any
index, let alone the element's name.
