JavaScript Forms

[Scalnan]

Hello, all.<br>
<br>
I would like to use <A HREF="

hierarchical menus code (below) to generate form output (preferably e-mailable). Specifically, I would like it to operate as sort of a shopping cart- each menu item leading to categorized products which could be put into an array of all selected products. Is this possible? I'm a JavaScript newbie in the strongest sense.<br>
<br>
Here's the code. (hierArrays.js and hierMenus.js are not included. Are they necessary to answer my question?)<br>
<br>
&lt;html&gt;<br>
&lt;head&gt;<br>
&lt;title&gt;<br>
Heirarchical Menus<br>
&lt;/title&gt;<br>
&lt;SCRIPT LANGUAGE=&quot;JavaScript&quot; TYPE=&quot;text/javascript&quot;&gt;&lt;!--<br>
NS4 = (document.layers); IE4 = (document.all); ver4 = (NS4 ¦¦ IE4); <br>
isMac = (navigator.appVersion.indexOf(&quot;Mac&quot != -1);<br>
isMenu = (NS4 ¦¦ (IE4 && !isMac));function popUp(){return};<br>
function popDown(){return};if (!ver4) event = null;//--&gt;&lt;/SCRIPT&gt;<br>
<br>
<br>
&lt;SCRIPT LANGUAGE=&quot;JavaScript1.2&quot; TYPE=&quot;text/javascript&quot;&gt;<br>
&lt;!--<br>
<br>
if (isMenu) {<br>
menuVersion = 3;<br>

document.write(&quot;&lt;SCRIPT LANGUAGE='JavaScript1.2' SRC='hierMenus.js'&gt;&lt;\/SCRIPT&gt;&quot;<br>
}<br>
//--&gt;<br>
&lt;/script&gt;<br>
&lt;/head&gt;<br>
&lt;body&gt;<br>
&lt;A HREF=&quot;/&quot; onMouseOver=&quot;popUp('elMenu1',event)&quot;<br>
onMouseOut=&quot;popDown('elMenu1')&quot;&gt;Webreference&lt;/A&gt;&lt;A HREF=&quot;/index2.html&quot;<br>
onMouseOver=&quot;popUp('elMenu2',event)&quot;<br>

&lt;/body&gt;<br>
&lt;/html&gt;<br>

hmm could couple the links from the furthest-out options to a JS &quot;shopping-cart&quot; then have the shopping cart be a form with a mailto: action & name the text box where all their items are dumped &quot;body&quot;. Use an &quot;invisible&quot; input that's set to some distinguishing phrase (i.e. Submission of items requested) named &quot;subject&quot; to give the e-mail submission message that subject.<br>

hope that helps <p>-Robherc<br><a href=mailto:robherc@netzero.net>robherc@netzero.net</a><br><a href= > </a><br>*nix installation & program collector/reseller. Contact me if you think you've got one that I don't

I have created a couple of .js files for a hiermenu nav. In the hiermenus.js, I have onLoad = startIt...but I keep getting an error, requesting that isFrames is undefined?

I am still a beginner, so I need a lot of help.

My end result is, using Dreamweaver, created a navigation that works off of the mouseover button and a menu slides down. Anyone know what I'me talking about?
