I expect this doesnot go in the PHP section but the script is in a php document and i have had problems with mixing javascript and php before...
I have experimented with the name function but it didn't seem to work...
Is there any way i can click on a link from a page i am making then it writes to the document saying you have selected this but doesn't actually take you anywhere, like a hidden input field that you can change the value of by a link and it writes what you have chosen to the page through the document.write function or whatever....
I hope that made sense...
If it's in the wrong section please move it...

It doesn't really make much sense to me... Could you try re-explaining, please?

I have a row of links and a "hidden" Input in a form.
I want to change the value of the hidden input by clicking on one of the links so clicking on link one changes the value to A Link 2 changes it to B and so forth.
And once you have clicked on that link it changes the value of the the hidden input but also write an imge to the document to show what you have clicked...
does that make any more sense?
Nevermore

You're right, that would be JavaScript not PHP. Exactly what do you want tho? (Third time lucky, lol):D
This is a JavaScript question, but here's the answer:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<head>
<title>Example</title>
</head>
<body>
<p><a href="#" onclick="document.forms[0].elements[0].value='One'; document.getElementById('mydiv').innerHTML = 'One'; return false;">One</a> |
<a href="#" onclick="document.forms[0].elements[0].value='Two'; document.getElementById('mydiv').innerHTML = 'Two'; return false;">Two</a> |
<a href="#" onclick="document.forms[0].elements[0].value='Three'; document.getElementById('mydiv').innerHTML = 'Three'; return false;">Three</a> | </p>
<form action="">
<input type="hidden">
</form>
<div id="mydiv"></div>
</body>

I have got it to do what i want but how would i get it to out it in a certain input but not others if i have a form with multple inputs in it. I must all be in one form aswell.
Give the form and input box a name, and then reference it like this:
document.formname.inputname.value
