Newby Assistance pls

I’m a cold fusion developer who knows nothing about javascript. So, I need some help here please.

I have set hidden form fields in my form template, as follows:

<form name=”theform” action=”actionpage”..etc>
<input type=”hidden” id=”xPhoto1″ name=”Photo1″ value=”#Photo1#”>
<input type=”hidden” id=”xPhoto2″ name=”Photo2″ value=”#Photo2#”>
<input type=”hidden” id=”xPhoto3″ name=”Photo3″ value=”#Photo3#”>
<input type=”hidden” id=”xPhoto4″ name=”Photo4″ value=”#Photo4#”>
<input type=”submit”…etc>
</form>

The page that processes this form needs to check for the existence of the ID attribute in the above form. In words, it would work something like this:
[B]If there is an id field with value of xPhoto1 in the passing form, then do something….else do something else.[/B]

I need to keep the name attribute as it is because it references a database field. I was hoping I could use the ID attribute to reference this particular hidden field without also referencing a form field name.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Kind regards,
Paul
