Movel all values of select box to text box 1

rob51383 · Dec 4, 2004

I have a select box that users add new options to dynamically. When they submit the form I need all of the select box values sent to a perl script. I need to move all the values of the select box to a hidden textbox and I will retreiv the values of the hidden textbox as the input. The different values need to be sepereated by a comma. Thanks

This code should do what you want:

Code:

function changeValue(src, targ) {
    var vals = '';
    for ( var i = 0; i < src.options.length; i++ ) {
        if ( vals.length > 0 ) vals += ',';
        vals += src.options[i].value;
    }
    targ.value = vals;
}

Here is how you would call it:

Code:

<form name="f" onsubmit="changeValue(this.selectboxname, this.hiddenfieldname)">
...
...
</form>
