form.disabled=true; 
} 
 
 
// --> 
</script> 
 
 
</head> 
 
<body> 
<form name="formname"> 
 
<table>

Re: Javascript/HTML problem!!!

I have to ask the same.

What do you want the page to do.

The formating is kind of wacky, but otherwise, if you remove the JavaScript: and the ending ";" as big_k105 said, it works fine, according to your posted code/function implementation.

Re: Javascript/HTML problem!!!

Sorry! I posted the wrong code!! I have since adjusted it. It is just a very rough sample of something I'm working on, I know the formatting is not right in some places. Anyway what I basically want to try to do is to disable the from. The problem I am having is that when my fields are inside a table the text duplicates when the form is disabled. You should be able to see that if you run my now adjusted code.
Thanks, B
