[Karl Blessing]

<br><br><br>&lt;Script Language=&quot;JavaScript&quot;&gt;<br>&lt;!--<br>&nbsp;function Go(thePath)<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;{DrvFrm.Path.value = thePath;<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;DrvFrm.submit();<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;}<br>--&gt;<br>&lt;/Script&gt;<br>&lt;/HEAD&gt;<br>&lt;BODY&gt;<br>&lt;Form name=&quot;DrvFrm&quot; action=&quot;default.asp&quot; method=&quot;post&quot;&gt;<br>&nbsp;&lt;input type=&quot;hidden&quot; name=&quot;Path&quot;&gt;<br>&lt;/Form&gt;<br><br>I don't know how you're calling the function, but from wherever that is, just call Go(argument).<br><br>Russ<br>

Dear Karl,<br><br>Javascript is not always as nice about type casting for you so depending on how you set the 'path' parameter in the 'Go' function you can sometimes get an error. If you do try this:<br><br>{DrvFrm.Path.value = thePath.toString();<br><br>or if your paranoid like me:<br><br>function Go(thePath){<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;var spath = new String(thePath);<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;DrvFrm.Path.value = spath.toString();<br>...<br>}<br><br>Good luck<br>-pete

I just need to be able to change the value of that Input entry, so that when I submit it, I'll be on the next ASP page ready to check Request.Form(&quot;Path&quot<br><br>but thanks for both your inputs, I will try them today <p>Karl<br><a href=mailto:kb244@kb244.8m.com>kb244@kb244.8m.com</a><br><a href=

oh and how I'm calling it<br>is like this<br><br>&lt;TD onclick=&quot;Go('C:\')&quot;&gt; blah blah &lt;/TD&gt;<br><br>only thing is I write ASP , so it'll dynamically put in the values into the HTML tags itself before it returns to the user. <p>Karl<br><a href=mailto:kb244@kb244.8m.com>kb244@kb244.8m.com</a><br><a href=

without the toString seems to work fine. <p>Karl<br><a href=mailto:kb244@kb244.8m.com>kb244@kb244.8m.com</a><br><a href=
