Hi Experts, I need some coding in javascript using checkbox. I got some 5 checkboxes options. There r 2 buttons users can choose more than 1 check box and clicks the button 1 and it is stored into the dbase. Only 1 checkbox should be allowed to choose if the user chooses the button 2. If the user chooses more than 1 option an alert message should be displayed. Pls help. Anybody got any sample coding for this. Suggestions r highly appreciated. Thank You. Regards, Star
The are a ton of ways to do what you need. Unfortunately, without knowing what browsers and browser versions you are supporting it's impossible to give you a definitive solution, but this should get you started for on IE5+, NN6+, Mozilla, and Safari: <input type="checkbox" name="ddd" value="" checked> <input type="checkbox" name="ddd" value="" checked> <input type="checkbox" name="ddd" value=""> <input type="checkbox" name="ddd" value=""> <input type="submit" name="sdfsd"> <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"> //alert(document.getElementsByTagName("input").length) var foundCount = 0 for(i=0;i<document.getElementsByTagName("input").length;i++) { if(document.getElementsByTagName("input").type == "checkbox") { //alert(document.getElementsByTagName("input").checked) if(document.getElementsByTagName("input").checked == true) { foundCount++ } } } if(foundCount > 1){ alert("Emergency Will Robinson") } </script> Good luck
