Sum of form fields

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Nov 22.2009

Ok the code goes like this:

// JavaScript Document
function updatesum() {
document.sumario.total.value = (document.sumario.precio[]1.value -0) + (document.sumario.precio[]2.value -0) + (document.sumario.precio[]3.value -0) + (document.sumario.precio[]4.value -0) + (document.sumario.precio[]5.value -0) + (document.sumario.precio[]6.value -0) + (document.sumario.precio[]7.value -0);

I know that the problem here is the field name, but how do i make this work without having to change the names?

I can’t change them because i have many other functions with those names already.

@FangNov 22.2009 — updatesum does not have a closing bracket. Check the JavaScript Console.

@ipslayerauthorNov 23.2009 — I updated the code, but it still dosen't work, the field box dosent show the total.

I also tried using (getElementsByName) and it didn't work either.

@FangNov 24.2009 — I can not see that updatesum is called anywhere?

@ipslayerauthorNov 24.2009 — ok, great it works now! thanks.

It's now printing in total (A), but now i need to do a couple other things.

I want to print the same result to field (11)

And i want to make a second sum for fields (1) to (10) and print them on field (12) and them sum (11) + (12) and print it on field (13).

Success!
