selectedIndex Issue

[bizproducer]

I setup this function in my within my head tags and I am calling it like this on the "ContID" dropdown: onchange="state_enable(0)"

Here is the function:

<script Language="JavaScript">
<!--
function state_enable()
{
if (document.Location.ContID.selectedIndex == 6
{
document.Location.StateID.disabled="false";
}
else
{
}
//-->
</script>

Why isn't this working? Thanks for your help!

Should be something like this

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--//
function state_enable(sel_value) {
	var d = document.this_form;

	if (sel_value == 6) {
		d.StateID.disabled = 'false';
	}
	else {

	}
}
//-->
</script>

<form name="this_form">

<select name="ContID" onChange="state_enable(this.value)">
	<option value="6">Test
</select>

<select name="StateID" disabled="true">
	<option value="0">Something
</select>

</form>

Why isn't this working?

The semicolon after the "== 6" is the first thing that stands out.

And not putting a closing brace on your function.

Thanks for the suggestions, I have tried all of them however and still am not having any luck.

I needed to make a couple adjustments but this works.

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--//
function state_enable(sel_value) {
    var d = document.this_form;

    if (sel_value == 6) {
        d.StateID.disabled = [b]false[/b];
    }
    else {

    }
}
//-->
</script>

<form name="this_form">

<select name="ContID" onChange="state_enable(this.value)">
    [b]<option value="">Select One[/b]
    <option value="6">Test 1
</select>

<select name="StateID" disabled="true">
    <option value="">Select One
    <option value="0">Test 2
</select>

</form>
