DIV tag FOrm element problem

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Aug 11.2008

Hello,

I have a FORM that contains many DIV tags and each DIV tags I have some FORM INPUT ELEMENTS.

When I try to access the form elements through java script, I am unable to set values to the form elements. that is because of DIV tag only.

I have to set values like this,

document.formName.elementName.value=”something”;

I am able to set values using some other ways. But I need to use the way i mentioned here, because I am using a third party date picker javascript. that accepts an input parameter of ‘formname.elementName’ format;

please let me know, how to do it..

thanks in advance
