ASP - Can't change the correct hidden field in loop.

Hi Lionstone,

No, all the formfields on the form are named differently and each hidden
field (the ones in which the value can change) are named independently by
taking their value from the loop count. The behaviour will be activated
after the table is generated - when the user clicks on a dropdown in a
specific row.

I am almost sure that this is a naming problem though. I know how to name
the hidden field differently with each loop when the table is generated but
when the javascript function is called it will only see the hidden field in
the very first row of the table I do not know a method of how I can get the
HF that is in the same row as the dropdown that is accessed to change.

Sounds like all your form fields have the same name, or the behavior in your
onChange event is not changing field names with everything else.
