Hi,

So, I realize that with radio buttons, the VALUE attribute of a selected button can be assigned to a variable, as in:

function stateChecker() {
var checkedButton = ""
for (var i in document.formname.xname) {
if (document.formname.xname[i].checked=="1"){
checkedButton=document.formname.xname[i].value
}
}

What I'd like to know is how you do this for a dropdown menu consisting of multiple items (15)?

Thanks for the help!

P.S. I am a BIGTIME newbie, so if ya'll can kind of "dumb-it-down" a little, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.

I can help with this. Have your menu with 15 options (whatever you want, but this example they are all numbers 1-15)

function stateChecker() {
var checkedButton = ""
for (var i in document.formname.xname) {
if (document.formname.select1.value=="1"){
checkedButton=document.formname.select1.value
}
}

The drop down's box property is held in the .value attribute.
