I have several html forms in a page. I want to define a variable equal to a form element value. The following code results in ' Object required: " ' error. I've researched and can't find syntax examples anywhere, so I don't know if it's a syntax problem or I'm going about this the wrong way altogether.

<&
Dim passed
passed = Document.Forms(2).Elements(4).value
...
&>

no you cant do this at all, you need to think like this:

document.theFormName.theFieldName.value

you can pass theFormName and theFieldName when you call JS function and yes you do use the equivalent of ....Element[4] but only inside JS loops. Im not really sure what else to say

I named the form and element and tried it like that, but I must have still had the syntax wrong. Anyway, I appreciate your input. I managed to do it another way. The form value is also posted to the server, and I figured out how to get it from there.
