document.all("theID")
will referece the object for you...

Thanks Elliot...for your tip...I tried it but it didnt work for what I
wanted it to do,,,found another way though.  I will send u an e-mail to the
link to show you what I mean after I am done :)

May I bother you with another question

This may be an easy question...but I cant find any answers.

I have more than one form on a page and I have the following JavaScript to
change the value of a text box called msg in each form, if needed.  The
forms are named form1, form2 form3 etc.  The numericals 1,2,3 being passed
as a variable called id.

var formname = 'form'+id
document.formname.msg.value=msg1

How do I insert the variable formname into  the statement without it
considering formname as a string.

(msg1 is also a variable)

Thank u in anticipation. I am migrating to JavaScript and getting over what
I cant do in ASP. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again

Ron

lol..
if i read th original post write, you just sent him code that would do the
exact opposite of what he asked for...

Randeep,
try

Response.ExpiresAbsolute = dateadd("d",1,date)

the page should cache for a day...
i think that should do it for you....

hey Ron

Try this:


<%
Response.ExpiresAbsolute = #1/1/1980#    ' Client treats page as expired
Response.AddHeader "cache-control", "private" ' Proxies not to cache
Response.AddHeader "pragma", "no-cache" ' Clients not to cache
%>

this prevents the page from caching....Good Luck

Sukhi
