Form names

[spinal007]

i have validation script that loops through all the forms in a document. (some of you have probably seen it at work).

well, I'm working on the new version and i have a small problem.

when I have a form:
<FORM name="MyForm" id="MyForm"....

[form object].id returns a string: 'MyForm'
but
[form object].name returns an object, WHY?

NB.:
I'll post an url later....

nobody?

Hmmm.... this is weird.... surely the desired response would be a string too.

I dunno bout this mate.

More Javascript madness. You've got server-side validation too right?

[spinal007]

yep. I've got both...

but i'd like that to work because I want the script to be a plug in.
basically, you add it to the page:
<SCRIPT src=watever....
and it will automatically sort out all the validation, etc

here's the full plugin which also includes popup menus and tab menus (tree menus coming soon)

by the way, the code is a mess so "don't watch that!"
i'm still sorting things out
