Help in passing values

[RycherX]

I have a drop down list box name ListBoxURL in my JSP.
The variable Choice is read into my javascript correctly only if it is one word. If the user makes a selection choice that has 2 words like
"James No", only James will be read in as the Choice. How can I fix this problem?

var Choice = document.myform.ListBoxURL.options[document.myform.ListBoxURL.selectedIndex].value;

could you make the two words into one using replace()

replace the space (" &quot with underline("_&quot or other character.

Pls find the attached code which replaces the character in the text box

Pls see the from one of the site:

"Internet Explorer 5.5's replace() function supports more features than version 5.0's. In IE 5.0, the replace() function takes two parameters: a regular expression and a replacement string. In IE 5.5, the function takes two parameters as well, but the second one is a handling function that does the replacement in a more elaborated manner. "

Code:

function replaceChars(entry) {
out = "a"; // replace this
add = "z"; // with this
temp = "" + entry; // temporary holder

while (temp.indexOf(out)>-1) {
pos= temp.indexOf(out);
temp = "" + (temp.substring(0, pos) + add +
temp.substring((pos + out.length), temp.length));
}
document.subform.text.value = temp;
}

<form name=&quot;subform&quot;>

<input type=text name=text size=40 value=&quot;abcdabcd&quot;><br>
<input type=button name=action value=&quot;Done!&quot; onClick=&quot;replaceChars(document.subform.text.value);&quot;>
