I submitted a question earlier, but I think there is a way: I have a dynamic form - a user selects the number of diagnostic codes they have and that number of sections appear. This includes a to and from date in drop downs. They also have repeat names ie: 2 diag codes will have 2 fromMonths name/value pairs. When the JSP is submitted, java takes care of parsing.
A change has been requested to a certain functionality: if user changes from date, the to date should change to match the from date.
My thoughts, since it has repeat names, I could capture the form element number (document.forms[0].elements[3]) and then add to the element number to change the value of the appropriate field (the to date).
I think this achievable because in the code below, I am able to capture the sourceIndex. There MUST be some command I could use that would give me the element number.
Oh, and even though the below code captures the number, it doesn't seem to tranlate properly.
