Hi,
I am trying to query the value of a textfield outside of a form but
with no success so far... the reason why I am not using a form is that
there seams to be an annoying issue with hitting the [Enter] key (at
least in Mozilla) when there is only one textfield in the form... the
[Enter] key seams to trigger some type of a submit... but when the
textfield is defined outside of a form this is not an issue... However
I don't know how to access the value for the textfield outside the
form... see example below...
any help is greatly appreciated...
Thanks,
Markus.

ctrls_doc.writeln("<td align='center' valign='center'>");
ctrls_doc.writeln("Inside FORM: <input type='text'

function check()
{
alert("FIRST: " + window.document.controls.elements.OpsName.value+
"\n" +
"SECOND: " + window.document.OpsName2);
}
