Forms

  #1  
Apr 2nd, 2005
I'm desperately trying to finish of a site for my writers club and I know nothing about programing only got as far as I have care of WYSIWYG program.

Anyway I want to insert a series of forms in one of the pages giving random Male Names, Female Names, Places, Events. With a little help I designed a form which let me pick random first names. I called this form 'Form1.' I then thought if I duplicated that form that I could just change the Male Names to Female Names - why was I so stupid - both boxes showed Female Names.

Anyway I'm not a programer, all I'm interested in doing is putting this particular bit of our site together. I really would appreciate some help.

Here is what I have so far.
<html>

}

function MM_preloadImages() { //v3.0
var d=document; if(d.images){ if(!d.MM_p) d.MM_p=new Array();
var i,j=d.MM_p.length,a=MM_preloadImages.arguments; for(i=0; i<a.length; i++)
if (a[i].indexOf("#")!=0){ d.MM_p[j]=new Image; d.MM_p[j++].src=a[i];}}
}

function MM_findObj(n, d) { //v4.01
var p,i,x; if(!d) d=document; if((p=n.indexOf("?"))>0&&parent.frames.length) {
d=parent.frames[n.substring(p+1)].document; n=n.substring(0,p);}
if(!(x=d[n])&&d.all) x=d.all[n]; for (i=0;!x&&i<d.forms.length;i++) x=d.forms[i][n];
for(i=0;!x&&d.layers&&i<d.layers.length;i++) x=MM_findObj(n,d.layers[i].document);
if(!x && d.getElementById) x=d.getElementById(n); return x;
}

function MM_swapImage() { //v3.0
var i,j=0,x,a=MM_swapImage.arguments; document.MM_sr=new Array; for(i=0;i<(a.length-2);i+=3)
if ((x=MM_findObj(a[i]))!=null){document.MM_sr[j++]=x; if(!x.oSrc) x.oSrc=x.src; x.src=a[i+2];}

This is not JSP... Post it in the JavaScript forum instead...

In the frozen land of Nador they were forced to eat Steve's iMinstrels, and there was much rejoicing.
