Unchecking all checkboxes (or after a certain checkbox) function

Death Slaught
1,137 Top Contributor
I play a game that when your backpack fills with items (the limit is 45) you must choose items to discard by unchecking their box. This is very annoying and time consuming so I was wondering if it were possible to create a Javascript function to be saved as a bookmark, and when used it prompts for the checkbox to start at (so it won't discard items that I want to keep) and discards all items after that point. So my main question is, is it possible for Javascript to manipulate a webpage in this way?

Here is part of the code used:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. <FORM ACTION = maze.php METHOD = post name=battle><input type=hidden name=discard value=1>  
  2.              <br>You cannot carry all of these items!
  3.              Select 45 items to keep.
  4.              The rest will be discarded.<table><tr><td><input type=checkbox name=Item0 value=1 checked></td>
  5.                <td>Forest Sloth Fang (72)</td>
  6.                <td>animal part</td><td><input type=checkbox name=Item1 value=1 checked></td>
  7.                <td>Ridiculous Refreshing Potion (20)</td>
  8.                <td>Restores 5000 HP and 5000 Mana</td></tr><tr><td><input type=checkbox name=Item2 value=1 checked></td>
  9.                <td>Ridiculous Refreshing Potion (20)</td>
  10.                <td>Restores 5000 HP and 5000 Mana</td><td><input type=checkbox name=Item3 value=1 checked></td>
  11.                <td>Ridiculous Refreshing Potion (20)</td>
  12.                <td>Restores 5000 HP and 5000 Mana</td></tr><tr><td><input type=checkbox name=Item4 value=1 checked></td>
  13.                <td>Ridiculous Refreshing Potion (20)</td>
  14.                <td>Restores 5000 HP and 5000 Mana</td><td><input type=checkbox name=Item5 value=1 checked></td>
  15.                <td>Ridiculous Refreshing Potion (13)</td>
  16.                <td>Restores 5000 HP and 5000 Mana</td></tr><tr><td><input type=checkbox name=Item6 value=1 checked></td>
  17.                <td>Scroll of Antaria Warp (2)</td>
  18.                <td></td><td><input type=checkbox name=Item7 value=1 checked></td>
  19.                <td>Keen Claymore</td>
  20.                <td>huge, 20d12 damage, +6 attack</td></tr><tr><td><input type=checkbox name=Item8 value=1 checked></td>
  21.                <td>Keen Claymore</td>
  22.                <td>huge, 20d12 damage, +6 attack</td><td><input type=checkbox name=Item9 value=1 checked></td>
  23.                <td>Keen Claymore</td>
  24.                <td>huge, 20d12 damage, +6 attack</td></tr><tr><td><input type=checkbox name=Item10 value=1 checked></td></tr></table>

Hi, I add rows to my table dynamically, with a checkbox in each row in the first column. The checkbox in the header row acts as a 'Select All' checkbox. Whenever it is checked, checkboxes in all the rows get checked. I tried this with changing the innerXML of the cell - but it is not a very elegant solution. What would be the best way to do this?

I have a form that has a five checkboxes. Two of the checkboxes (let's call them box4 and box5) cannot both be checked. For example, if box4 is checked, box5 will uncheck and vice versa. I am new to SQL/PL and do not know what to code in the trigger to get this done.
