Getting element by passing string in javascript

[User 1804931]

Hi, In javascript is it possible to get the element by passing the string variable. Is there any way to do this.(I want to get it by passing a string variable only) Example. var ElementName ="ComboBox1"; this.form.getElementById(ElementName); Regards, Chakravarthy.v

As long as the your element's id attribute is set (for example, to "ComboBox1") then you can use var e = document.getElementById("ComboBox1"); to retrieve it in javascript.
