Javascript variable to chronoforms database

Hi,

I have a Javascript to put users from one listbox to another. The listbox is part of a chronoform. How do I 'transfer' the javascript-variable with the selection (eg. "1,5,8") to the chronoform-table in mysql? I tried with input="hidden" etc. but It doesn't save the values in the chronoforms table.

Gr, Jan

Hi Jan,

I'm not quite sure what you are doing here - some code examples might help.

You should be able to set the value of a hidden field form your JavaScript so that it will be saved like any other form value.

Hi Greyhound,

wow, you are for sure the quickest forumreplyer I know... fantastic!

I managed to create a <INPUT HIDDEN> statement with Javascript (sorry, now I see it) but one thing I don't understand: it writes it to a new page in stead of in the form code.

Sorry, I managed to solve this by creating a <div> and writing the code to it. Sorry, I was to quick by asking this at the forum!

Gr, Jan

Hi Jan,

Try the other way round - create a hidden input in your Form HTML then set it's value with the JavaScript.

<input name='new_var' id='new_var' type='hidden' value='' />

$('new_var').value = 'xyz';

Note: not tested and may need debugging.
