When I disable my webpage the text in my edit fields duplicates. e.g. ABC changes to ABCABC. THis only seems to happen when I have my edit fields in a <table>. A sample of my code is provided. I'd appreicate any help. Thanks, B.

<html> 
<head> 
<title>Test</title> 

<script type="text/javascript"> 
<!-- 
function disableForm&#40;form&#41; 
&#123; 
alert&#40;'disable form'&#41;; 
form.disabled=true; 
&#125; 


// --> 
</script> 


</head> 

<body> 
<form name="formname"> 

<table> 

<tbody> 
<tr> 
<td> 

<input type=edit name="textinput" value="abc"/> 
</td> 
</tr> 
<tr> 
<td align=left>input</td> 
<TD align=left><input type=edit name=userName>* </TD> 
</tr> 

</tbody> 

</table> 
<input type="button" value="test" onclick="java script&#58;disableForm&#40;this.form&#41;;" /> 
</form> 
</body> 
</html>

I have to ask the same.

What do you want the page to do.

The formating is kind of wacky, but otherwise, if you remove the JavaScript: and the ending ";" as big_k105 said, it works fine, according to your posted code/function implementation.

Sorry! I posted the wrong code!! I have since adjusted it. It is just a very rough sample of something I'm working on, I know the formatting is not right in some places. Anyway what I basically want to try to do is to disable the from. The problem I am having is that when my fields are inside a table the text duplicates when the form is disabled. You should be able to see that if you run my now adjusted code.
Thanks, B
