appending data to a hidden form variable

[libsfan01]

hello again!

another problem im having is appending a value to a string. how come
this function isnt working for me? string overwrites the value of
content not gets added onto the end of it?!

function alertchange(value) {

var string = value;

document.update.content.value = document.update.content.value + string;

}

}

Change the name of your parameter.

function alertchange(param){
document.update.content.value += param
}
