Hi,

I'm having a small problem with setting the value of a hidden form field in the customUserCreateForm extension. The alert gives the correct value, but somehow it doesn't get posted after the user created a new account.

The value of the hidden value has to be set when someone checks a checkbox.

<input type='checkbox' name="wpFacultyCheck" onChange="createUserToggle(this)" id="wpFacultyChecker" />

<input type="hidden" id="hiddenFacultyField" name="hiddenFacultyField" value="" />

Then in common.js I have:

function createUserToggle(obj){

if(obj.checked){ document.userlogin2.hiddenFacultyField.value="yes"; }else{ document.userlogin2.hiddenFacultyField.value="no"; } alert(obj.value +" "+ document.getElementById('hiddenFacultyField').value) }

addOnloadHook(createUserToggle);

I used "onchange" as "onclick" doesn't work in FF3.

Does anyone have a good solution for this?

Thanks,

Alain

Try using DOM: document.getElementById('hiddenFacultyField').value="no";

Although you can probably fix your extenxion to take into account the value in the checkbox instead of hidden fields and javascript.
