Accessing Textfield value within same JSP

karthik_hr123

Hi All,

Can we access the value that will be entered in a text field, in the same JSP to enable/disable further fields(of the same form/JSP)?

For instance I've a jsp which has 3 fields. Depending on the value entered in the firstfield, I need to enable the third field(till then it has to be disabled)...


If yes, please let me know an example....


Thanks,
Karthik

You should use a script that executes in the browser to handle this type of validation. E.g., in javascript...
if( document.firstfield.value == 'John' )
{
document.thirdfield.disabled = true;
}
