Calling variable in a string

[mili]

I have a function:
<SCRIPT language="JavaScript1.2">
function addNew() {
var tableName = document.add.TableName.value;
alert(tableName);

document.add.action="/Web/Workflow?TableName=";
document.add.method="post";
document.add.target="list";

var tableName = document.add.TableName.value;
alert(tableName);

document.add.submit();
}
</SCRIPT>
I want to use the variable 'tableName' in
document.add.action="/Web/Workflow?TableName=variable";
How can I do this?

[Khalid Ali]

Like this

document.add.action="/Web/Workflow?TableName="+TableName;

Thanks Khalid..
I have something like this and it does not work for me

document.add.action="/Web/Workflow?TableName=+TableName&amp;action="+TableNameNew;

I'm trying to call the variable for the "action" parameter and append the variable with New

If I understand you correctly, you need this:
document.add.action="/Web/Workflow?TableName="+TableName+"&action="+TableNameNew;

You have to remember how to concatenate strings in javascript.

"this is a string "

" this is a second string"

var IamAVariable = "I am a variable";

you will always have to make sure that you follow the pattern now to concatenate the strings and variable above this is what you wil need to do.
"this is a string "+IamAVariable+ " this is a second string"

now see the above description and then try to resconstruct your action string

Thanks...but I get this error TableNameNew is undefined.
I'm trying to append the variable with the word New.
