declaring text box

[Aseef]

how to declare a textbox in Javascript???

[acoder]

Can you be more clear in defining your problem/question? What do you mean by declaring a text box? Do you mean creating one and displaying it?

[Aseef]

Thank you for ur response. The requirement is like this. i have a java script function 'displayTxtBox()'. i just want pass the text boxes names while calling this function. can you helpme? how can ido that?

[gits]

i don't understand this ... are the textboxes just hidden or do you need to create them dynamically first? ... the function should just receive the name of the box - what should exactly happen then? please show what you have done so far and give an example for the wished behaviour ...

kind regards

the text boxes will be hidden at the page load. in the fuction i have wriiten the code to make it visible. please see the below mail

function displayCalibTxt()
 {
   document.Form1.TxtCalib1.style.display='block'
   document.Form1.TxtCalib2.style.display='block'
}

so instead of writing the text boxes id one by one. can i pass the text box id as parameter?

[Aseef]

please let me know if you want it more clear

Yes, of course.

function displayTxtBox(id) {
    document.getElementById(id).style.display='block';
}

Remember to make sure the ID is unique.
