hi ...

give your elements an id and always use

var obj   = document.getElementById('id_value');
var value = obj.value;

that is the standards-compliant way ... document.all is not used by moz/FF-browsers ...

kind regards

;) ask more questions anytime ... and note: it is much better for development to develop your code with FF/Mozilla/Opera/Safari (this certainly provides much better debugging tools too) and then as a last step to adapt it to IE-specifics ... a lot of things are working the standards way in IE too ... i think they are trying to adopt the standards ... but some things don't work ... and only this have to be adapted for use in IE ... i promise ... that way is much better then having an IE-specific application that has to be adapted for all other browsers ... ;)

kind regards

document.all is not a standard javascript call, unless something has changed in the last few years.
Don't use it.

But this is a javascript question that should be asked on the javascript board.

Hi!
i have a problem with document.all...it is not working in firefox..plz check the code and give me a solution

var objValue=this.document.all.namedItem(obj);

document.all is non-standard and only works in IE and one or two others.

Use document.getElementById instead:

var objValue = document.getElementById(obj).value;

How are you calling this function?

How are you calling this function?

i'm writing this funtion validate() in one javascript file and this javascript file is calling in a jsp file.....

OK, let me rephrase that for you. What arguments are you passing in the function call? In other words, what is elementname, validateStr and obj?
