Form Functions - JavaScript Vision

Form functions are those that allow the user to work with the HTML <FORM> tag. These functions include the ability to

create e-mail using the mailto: URL feature of JavaScript,
store data entered in a form,
retrieve and populate the saved form data, and
establish a pointer to a form.

Use


<SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript" LANGUAGE="JavaScript" SRC="JS_Vision_Globals.js"></SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript" LANGUAGE="JavaScript" SRC="JS_Vision_Character.js"></SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript" LANGUAGE="JavaScript" SRC="JS_Vision_String.js"></SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript" LANGUAGE="JavaScript" SRC="JS_Vision_Form.js"></SCRIPT>

Remarks

The form saver functions, storeData and retrieveData, were written by Mike Hall and have been so useful to me that I have packaged them in the JavaScript Vision library and encapsulated them for consistency with other JavaScript Vision functions. If you wish to download these and many other JavaScript and DHTML functions, please visit Mike's site at BrainJar.
