form fields

[lukeurtnowski]

Imtrying to test what a value is of a forms field, this is what I think

if (document.form.name.value ==1)
do something"";

Any Ideas?

if ($_POST["value"] == 1) {
    // do something
} else {
    // return false
}

Are you trying to do it in Javascript or PHP?

If you are doing it in PHP, what Frederick said is correct. You access form elements by their names. If you have a text box on a form called "MyTextBox" then you access it using either $GET or $POST (depending on the method you used to pass the data).

Now that I think of it, it would probably be better if I were to use javascript Would you be able to help me that way also?
