how can i change the form button value

[Keendev]

Hi,

need help on this one...

i wanted to change the button value from

<INPUT type="button" name="checkall"
value="Select all"  onClick="check_all( this.form['checkbox[]'], true )" >

into this one when clicked

<INPUT type="button" name="checkall"
value="Deselect all"  onClick="check_all( this.form['checkbox[]'], false )" >

and vice versa

as you can notice the button value changes when clicked and true becomes false and vice versa.

this is needed when you want to have select / deselect functionality.

thank you guys

Try this

<INPUT type="button" name="checkall"
value="Deselect all"  onClick="check_all( this.form['checkbox[]'], true, this )" >

<INPUT type="button" name="checkall"
value="Deselect all"  onClick="check_all( this.form['checkbox[]'], false, this )" >

in your JS

function check_all(group,action,node) {
  if (action) { node.value='Deselect All'; } else { node.value='Select All'; }

 .....

}

Notice that the JS is in addition to whatever you already do. Also, notice that the onclick="..." is simply passing the object reference in addition to whatever you had.

Hope this helps!
