Live Calculations

[elpanther]

OK I have a doozie(sp). I am not sure if it can be done in CF or not. But I'm gonna try. Here goes:

I have a row of data. In the first cell I have a textbox where you can change a number.
In the second cell I have a formula, say "x 10".
In the third cell I have the result.
Here is the hard part.
What I need to do is when the user makes a change to the textbox the value in the third cell changes automatically. The issue is that it needs to change immediately without submiting to a DB or back to itself becuase there are multiple rows with the same function.
Any Ideas?

See my reply in the MM forum. Basically, use Javascript to do the calc.

I have searched the site and can't find your reply you mention in this post. Can you be more specific than the "MM" forum? I need this same information.

Thanks,

just ask the JS forum. here is the link. forum216 it is very simple to do but this being a CF forum, and that being a js question, i'm not going to get into the details, sorry.

Sorry for the confusion, stobeck. The Search function on the Macromedia (MM) ColdFusion Forum (

http://www.macromedia.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/index.cfm?forumid=1)

is what I was referring to. elpanther made his original post there. I found the post by entering his handle in the Author field of the search form there.
