Ok,
Don't concentrate on the PHP code in this example, it's only to produce dynamically number of rows contain some form elements, in repeated mannar.

The most important and vital, is the clientside script, JavaScript, the problem in it, and I don't know how to solve it.
:confused:
And thank you for help, and I hope to receive more help if you know more, to solve this problem

I understand the code perfectly, including the PHP, however I don't know why it wouldn't work. And, although I haven't tested it, someone is sure enough to come around and help you... *Looks at Dave Clark...* :rolleyes:

Element ID should be UNIQUE. getElementById returns SINGLE object, not an array.

Ok,
So,I'd like to ask, are getElementsByName or getElementsByTagName, rturns array?

Thank you for this valuable reply

Oooh, you're right, Vladdy. I didn't notice that part (wonder why?). Hmmmm, return an array of objects? There is document.formname.elements[x], where elemens.length is the number of form elements in the form--but if you're looking for an array of checkboxes... :rolleyes:
