[Kss-devel] Problems with kssSubmitForm , changing value of all "input"-tags after select:change?

Mon Jun 4 21:41:29 CEST 2007

Hello, 

I'm having some problems with kssSubmitForm, but the demo works without problems.

Use-case:
There is one "select"-tag in forms.pt with a vocabulary based choice (data fetched from database)
On "select:change" I would like to change the attribute "value" of all "input"-tags as well.(value fetched again from sql database)
My aim is to initialise input tags with data from templates("select"-Tag)

So my first idea was kssSubmitForm (dictionary of all input fields)  --> doesn't work at all (see below)
and to use setAttribute somehow.  :-)

It was my first idea, so if there is a shorter way please don't mind telling me.

Thanks.

Best regards!

Harald
