Need some help with coding (ASP)

I am reworking some pages and can't figure out how to do some things in Dreamweaver CS4. First thing is how can I make two or three fields add up and have the sum go into another field.

I am using DW CS4, a SQL database and asp pages.

Another question I have is: I have an insert record page set up but I need to change one of the fields from text to menu. How can I do this without having to redo the entire page?

> I am not using float anywhere in the page

The error is not talking about a CSS float. It is talking about trying to
use an algebraic operand on a TEXT value, e.g., you may be trying to add 234
to apple.

I'm getting this error and cannot work out why:

Operand type clash: float is incompatible with text

I am not using float anywhere in the page, that I can tell. Can anyone give me any idea as to why this might be happening? The page was working fine this morning and after I started getting this error, I went and completely recreated the page but I am still getting it.

Then you would have to use javascript for that.

<script type="text/javascript">
function addEm(x,y) {
return parseInt(x)+parseInt(y);
}
</script>
</head>

<body>
<form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="">
<p>value:
<input type="text" name="value1" id="value1"
onchange="document.form1.sum.value=addEm(this.value,
document.form1.value2.value);" value="0" />
</p>
<p>value:
<input type="text" name="value2" id="value2"
onchange="document.form1.sum.value=addEm(this.value,
document.form1.value1.value);" value="0" />
</p>
<p>sum:
<input type="text" name="sum" id="sum" value="0" readonly="readonly" />
</p>
</form>

Okay, thanks. I'll give it a try.

Another question I have is: I have an insert record page set up but I need to change one of the fields from text to menu. How can I do this without having to redo the entire page?

Do you want this to appear in the field as the user is entering data or
after the form is submitted?
