Pulling data from a database.
The drawn data comes paired, from two fields in the same database.

Example source code:

var emps = [
		['American Studies','AMST'],['Anglican Studies','ANGL']];

The scenario: the values of [0] are displayed in a listbox. (American Studies & Anglican Studies)
The goal is to have the corresponding information (AMST & ANGL) appear in an <INPUT> box based upon the listbox selection.

I'm able to write either (AMST & ANGL) using <SPAN> & <DIV> tags. But I can't get (AMST & ANGL) to appear in an <INPUT> tag's value.

Didn't get any response on my first posting; thought I'd re-submit it. I'd like to know if it's even possible. Haven't found a single tutorial on placing known data into the value of <INPUT> tags.

innerHTML doesn't seem to work either.

Do you mean something on these lines?

<form name="f1">
<select name="s1" onchange="test(this)"></select>
<input type="text" name="t1">
</form>

<script type="text/javascript">

var emps = [
['American Studies','AMST'],['Anglican Studies','ANGL']
];
        
document.f1.s1[document.f1.s1.length] = new Option("Choose",null)
        
for(var i=0;i<emps.length;i++){
document.f1.s1[document.f1.s1.length] = new Option(emps[i][0],emps[i][0])
}

function test(obj){
if(obj.selectedIndex!=0){
document.f1.t1.value=emps[obj.selectedIndex-1][1]
}
else{
document.f1.t1.value=""
}

}
</script>

Mr. J,

That nailed it.

Thank you for the support.
