If you realy need string parameter you could do some string parsing
and the function would look something like this:
/*
* focusTheElement(string)
* the parameter should have the folowing format :
* 'form_name.element_name'
*/
fuction focusTheElement(element) {
var form=element.substring(1,element.indexOf('.'));
var child=element.substring(element.indexOf('.')+1,element.length);
/*
You should test the function and see if it works well
use :
alert(form);
or
document.write('form="'+form+'"<br/>');
alert(child);
or
document.write("child='"+child+"'<br/>");
*/
/* then you should do something like this: */
document.forms[form].elements[child].focus();
}
or
/*
* focusTheElement(string)
* the parameter should have the folowing format :
* 'form_name.element_name'
* I don't know if this function will improve the speed but it would do
the job!
*/
fuction focusTheElement(element) {
eval('document.'+element+'.focus();');
}
If you do not ned a string parameter you could use what John Nichel
wrote before me.
