Referencing form controls

[Ruffell]

Hi all,

I've only just started learning VBScript today - and I've got two questions.

First, how can I replicate the "this" functionality from JavaScript, so a line in HTML can read:

<input onsubmit=&quot;validate(this)&quot;>

And my function would then be

Function validate(SourceControl)


Second, how can I copy a form control reference to a variable, so instead of typing &quot;Document.mainForm.controlName&quot; each time I can just have code like:

dim curControl
curControl = Document.mainForm.controlName

And then refer to curControl from then on? Any help on these two questions would be much appreciated!

Thanks,

Russell
