Passing Value from DIV TAB id to dropdown Onchange Event

[MayoorPatel]

Hi there I have a dropdown

<select name="OrganisationID" size="1" class="text300" 
	                     onChange="javascript:document.forms[0].submit();">

and a set of div tabs.

<td id="cardActivitySchemeTab" class="selectedTab" onclick="setFormAction(this.id);moveTabSectorSkillsReports(this.id, 'cardActivityScheme');">Card Activity by Scheme</td>
						    <td id="allNewCardsTab" class="tab" onclick="setFormAction(this.id);moveTabSectorSkillsReports(this.id, 'allNewCards');">All New Cards</td>													
						    <td id="cardsIssuedTab" class="tab" onclick="setFormAction(this.id); moveTabSectorSkillsReports(this.id, 'cardsIssued');">Cards Issued</td>													
						    <td id="verifierActivityTab" class="tab" onclick="setFormAction(this.id); moveTabSectorSkillsReports(this.id, 'verifierActivity')">Verifier Activity</td>													
						    <td id="detailedVerifierActivityTab" class="tab" onclick="setFormAction(this.id); moveTabSectorSkillsReports(this.id, 'detailedVerifierActivity');">Verifier Activity (Detailed)</td>

What I need to do is when the dropdown value is changed I need whatever DIV tab is active to be passed to the function (ExecuteMail(Currenttab)) in the dropdown onchange command.

<select name="OrganisationID" size="1" class="text300" 
	                     onChange="ExecuteMail(Currenttab);javascript:document.forms[0].submit();">

Is there any way of doing this?

Mayoor

I would suggest that you use a global variable to store the selected tab. You can access it from any function within the page - and could even then store it in a cookie and retrieve it through page traversal as well!
