Hi All,
I have an 'input' that is of type= "image", and name="butt",
that I need to enable/disable from time to time.
In IE (6) I used [document.theform..butt.disabled=condition] and it worked
fine. However, in a Mozilla (latest vers, no number avail) it doesn't see
this as an object. As a workaround I declared a global var 'theButton' and
used 'onLoad="theButton=this;"' within that 'input' to set the value, and
this works fine in both Moz & IE.
Having to use a global var is not a problem, but I would like to know why
the original attempt didn't work in both browsers? The 'form' that 'butt'
is a member of contains 1 select, 3 type="text" inputs, and finaly the
type="image" input.
Perhaps Moz doesn't add an 'input' of type="image" to the collection if the
types are mixed?
Any light on this would be very welcome.
TIA,
Vince Morgan
