problem with code to calculate total values in textboxes that are added dynamically

[amek000]

<script language="javascript">
function calcvaluesArr(){
var txts = document.getElementsByName('textfield23[]');
        var aTotal=0;                      
         for (var i = 0; i < txts.length; i++) 
          {         
            if (txts[i].value!="") 
               { 
                aTotal=eval(aTotal)+eval(txts[i].value);
              } 
        } 
document.form.textfield19.value=aTotal;
}
</script>

Here, look into this, believe this might help you:

<script type="text/javascript">
    function calculate(){
        var textFields = document.getElementsByName('txt');
        var total = 0;
 
        for(var i in textFields){
            if(textFields[i].value){
                total += parseFloat(textFields[i].value);
            }
        }
 
        document.getElementById('total').value = total;
    }
 
    window.onload = function(){ calculate(); };
</script>
<input type="text" name="txt" value="1" onkeyup="calculate()" />
<input type="text" name="txt" value="2" onkeyup="calculate()" />
<input type="text" name="txt" value="3" onkeyup="calculate()" />
<input type="text" name="txt" value="4" onkeyup="calculate()" />
<input type="text" name="txt" value="5" onkeyup="calculate()" />
 
<input type="text" name="total" id="total" value="0" readonly />

Good luck.

The issue now is:

1. Canabeez, your code does not run in IE8
2. I am not able to get the values inserted into mysql using php

Any ideas on these?

Thanks again

[Canabeez]

Sorry, I'm a mac user, unable to check on IE8 :/ are you getting some JS errors?

Show some php/javascript/mysql code for further assistance.

[amek000]

<?php
 
foreach($textfield23 as $a => $b){
$qins = "INSERT INTO myTable VALUES(NULL, $reqid, $selecta[$a], '$textfield23[$a]', '', '', NOW())";
mysql_query($qins) or die(mysql_error());
";
 
}
 
?>

This is the JavaScript

function calculate(){
        var textFields = document.getElementsByName('textfield23');
        var total = 0;
 
        for(var i in textFields){
            if(textFields[i].value){
                total += parseFloat(textFields[i].value);
            }
        }
 
        document.getElementById('textfield19').value = total;
    }
 
    window.onload = function(){ calculate(); };
