Thanks for your reply. I have a feeling it's to do with the way our Apache server is configured...

This'll seem like a bizarre question, but when using forms within an html page, is there a limit on the number of input fields that you can use? I have a problem whereby if I try and submit more than 100 fields back to my server, the fields come back as blank. If I reduce the number of fields to...

Cheers! Any idea how I can adopt that multiple rows idea I mentioned earlier?

Sorry, what I meant was, is there any way to stop a decimal number having .99999 recursive after the decimal place? And what I meant by 9.2, was a maximum value of 999999999.99, ie , 9 chars before the decimal, 2 after. Is that possible client side, or am I going into the realms of impossibility.

Doh, shouldn't have spoken so soon ;) Found a small problem. Tried changing the parseInt to parseFloat, and with some numbers it gives huge numbers after the decimal place. Any way I can limit the total to display in the format 9.2 (ie, 9 characted integer, 2 decimals?) Sorry to keep asking!

theboyhope - that's spot on! Excatly what I was trying to do, thank you very much. Now I've got to try and make it work with multiple rows :D (ie, 6 rows of 7 days, all with individual totals). Eeep!

Hi, I have a page with 7 textboxes (corresponding to days of the week), into which the user can enter a value. I'm wanting a script that is called whenever the user changes a value in one of these boxes (so, presumably onBlur???) and adds up the total of all these boxes, then places it into...

Cheers Boomarang/Erik! That's exactly what I was looking for.

Nope! Thanks for the reply though! Maxlength="400" doesn't work either.

Hi, I'd like to know how to setup a textarea in my form which can be no longer than 400 characters long (displayed as 5 lines of 80). My code is as follows: <textarea name=&quot;textfield&quot; cols=&quot;80&quot; rows=&quot;5&quot; wrap=&quot;soft&quot;></textarea> Now, I would logically...

Thanks for your help, much appreciated. I warn you though, if I have any problems I may well post here again!

Instead of using a listbox, could you put the contents inside a layer (<div>) tag? You could use css to simulate the appearance of a regular listbox, and use the visibility style to show/hide the contents on the press of a key. You might even be able to find some fancy script that moves the div...

Thanks very much fishiface. I have to confess to being a bit baffled by all these modules and their installation. As I said, finding an 'idiots guide' to setting up has been difficult! I thought it was as simple as downloading the modules from CPAN, as they are listed their and a number of perl...

Hi, I'm trying to use the Mail::Mailer module to send emails from a webpage (my sysadmin can't get to grips with sendmail configuration - not that I'm surprised, it looks horrific, but I digress). My script contains the following code (and includes the line use Mail::Mailer; at the top)...

Thanks, that's what I thought but it's always best to ask if you're a newbie!

Stupid question this, but it just hit me- if I'm passing an email address to a server-side cgi script (from a webpage), do I have to inspect the address and put in an escape (backslash) before the &quot;@&quot; so perl doesn't interpret it as an array? (probably a stupid question, I know.)

Thank you, I didn't know one even existed!

Hi, I need some help setting up sendmail. I'd like to be able to use it to send emails via smtp - what line(s) do I need in my sendmail.cf to acheive this? I'm a bit of a novice at this so advice in words of one syllable or less would be great!

I agree with sim777. Surely it is the developers job to make life easier for the user, not to produce systems that are easier to code? Sorry for going O/T :)

.. catch the browser going back? I was trying code along the lines of : if history.back(1) { do whatever; } but it doesn't work. Is there any way of catching someone clicking the back button in IE?
