Question

I have the below script:

<script type="text/javascript">
        function get(row){
        alert(row);
        $.post ('getpeopleinjobs.php',{ 
        postvarposition: form.position1.value,
        postvarjob: form.job1.value, 
        postvarperson: form.person1.value, 
        postrow: row}, 
            function(output){
                $('#training'+row).html(output).show();
                    });
                }
</script>

This works 100%. However I want the ‘1’ or number appended to position, job and person to be the variable ‘row’. something like the below(which does not work)

postvarposition: form.position+row.value

i did try form[position+row].value as per advice from another post but this does not work.

The alert(row) returns 1 if the onchange=”get(1)” and 2 if the onchange=”get(2)” etc so this is working.

How can I concatenate the row variable onto the positon, job, and person statement so that as row increases in value I’ll get
form.position1.value
form.position2.value
form.position3.value etc etc.

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Access the form values by string

form["position" + row].value
