Here's what I'm trying to accomplish:

I have a checkbox and when checked, sets selected field (as they gain focus) with a highlighted background...I hardcoded individual fields so I know the highlighting works...here's what I've tried:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

var kolor = "$kolor$";
function SetFKolor(FKolor) {
document.forms[0].kolor.value=FKolor;
}
</script>

onmouseup="SetFKolor('highlight')"

onFocus="kolor(event)"

I'm stuck! Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Ron
