I realise what I am about to ask is really a DHTML question rather than an XSL one, but as I am trying to use DHTML to generate XML I suspect the members of this mailing list will have been more likely to have encountered this problem than most DHTMLers. I want to use radio buttons to allow users to select one of three permitted values that I have allowed for one of the attributes on one of my XML elements. However, the attribute has to apply to each line in a table of entries. Because HTML requires you to use a different attribute name for each set of radio buttons, to avoid the entries for one line overwriting the entries for the next I have to index the names assigned to each set, Order1, Order2, etc. The problem is that I then want to use a loop to generate the XML from this. I have a loop that starts for (i=0; i < document.all.PropertyName.length; i++) {text += '<Component type="' + document.all.Order(i).getAttribute('value') + '">\n'; Now this cannot work, because it tells you to get the ith Order object, not the entry whose name is Order+i. But I cannot see any mechanism that allows me to ask for the value attribute of an object whose name is composed of Order+i. Can anyone suggest how I could get around this problem, or do I have to use a very messy looking option menu to be able to make use of the loop?
