Hi!The code I use for getting the values from dynamic javascript form fields is not working dont know why?
The problem might actually be because of form tags and submit buttons, I guess.So now I have three sets of pages using same code,
#1.Working in excellent condition
#2.Partially working if used with only one form tag
#3.Not working if used with three form tags
Dont believe me??
Please check following link:

The complete code is given below for your kind perusal.Obviously I want solution for "Not working example" because that is one I want to use in my website.

I cant find the solution due to lack of expertise I guess
Thanking you in anticipation.

Why do you need to have multiple forms where the forms contain same action ?
Make a single form request where you have all requests to the same action page.
Add validations to mandatory fields.

Hello,

I show your code, As "paulrajj" suggestion it's doesn't need to make three form, So make one form with same action with multiple fieldset (which difference your different as form) and after click on submit button you need to make proper validation & than write code on invoice_data.php page.

By the way right now it's not working because, when you submit form ( which are in third form) and you check condition on invoice_data.php for "qty" field which are into second form. So after submit $_POST not have that qty value which is in second form.

I hope this will help you..

I am very thankful to paulrajj & HemantPHP for their replies.
Finally i got the solution for the issue.I just made it in single form tag and placed the javascript table at the end.
Thanks for your support.
