check for string in select box [Resolved]

I need to check for the phrase "OICA" in a select box. Depending on which item they select in the select box, I need to change some values in some check boxes.

If you can just tell me how to check for that phrase, I can get the rest. I just don't know where to start with finding the phrase.

Thanks in advance.

Ok, I've got the instr part figured out... now I just have one small problem. How do I send the contents of the select box to the javascript function instead of the value?

I'm using:

Code:

---

document.dform.test2.options[document.dform.test2.selectedIndex].value

---

in my function call.

Ok... so I figured out that part too... you just use "text" instead of value.

Now... a new problem. Can you call 2 functions within one "onclick"?

like this:

VB Code:

onClick="function1();function2();"

But I always like to call the second function from within the first

I tried that... didn't work. Hm... maybe I have something else messed up. And I can't call the second within the first because I have to use the first one independently.

edit: Had to use double quotes instead of single quotes. Thanks.
