retrieve hidden value from dynamically loaded table

[cylly]

In script I am trying to do this, name = info.children[?].children['tName'].value . How can I determine what ? is supposed to be? It will be a different number depending on the table row selected from a previous screen.
My table looks like this.
<TABLE id=&quot;mytable&quot; border=1>
<TR name='tablerow1'>
<pr:iterator results=&quot;tableLayout&quot;>
<b>
<TH><pr:field name=&quot;column_screen_txt&quot;/> </TH>
</b>
</pr:iterator>
</TR>

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

<pr:iterator results=&quot;tableData&quot; >
<TR onClick=&quot;highlightTR('#c9cc99','cc3333',this);&quot;>
<pr:fieldIterator>
<TD><pr:field /></TD>
</pr:fieldIterator>

<TD>
<input type=hidden name=tName value=<%= request.getParameter(&quot;tName&quot %> >
<input type=hidden name=tDesc value=<%= request.getParameter(&quot;tDesc&quot %> >
<input type=hidden name=tNum value=<%= request.getParameter(&quot;tNum&quot %> >
<input type=hidden name=key1Value value=&quot;<pr:field name=&quot;first_ky_typcd&quot;/>&quot;>
</TD>
</TR>
</pr:iterator>
</TABLE>

Why don't you retrieve the value strait into javascript (without hiding it)?

<script>
var tName=&quot;<%=request(&quot;tName&quot%>&quot;
</script> -----------------------------------------------------------------
Be nice. It's only doing what you tell it to do.

That worked! I didn't know you could do that. Thanks for your help. I am still very new at javascript but I am plugging away at it.

That worked for the request.getParameter values. How can I get the value for key1Value?

i have no idea, this is a complete guess, but i hope it helps:

<script>
var key1Value = &quot;<pr:field name='first_ky_typcd'/>&quot;;
</script>

hope it helps

So true..

I tried that already. It didn't work.

You would retrieve the value the same way. The question I have is how are you setting the value on the original page? What are you trying to do with it?

<input type=hidden name=key1Value value=&quot;<pr:field name=&quot;first_ky_typcd&quot;/>&quot;>


key1Value = &quot;<%=key1Value%>&quot; -----------------------------------------------------------------
