Hi all, I got this sets(20) of defined constants which using them as keys to an array eg define("FNAME", "fname"); farray = array( FNAME => "hello" ,...); my question is how do I insert that directly into a javascript(to do some client validation) I need this: var fname = document.addrform.fname.value var fname = document.addrform.{FName}.value //don't work var fname = document.addrform.{'FName'}.value //don't work var fname = document.addrform.[FName].value //don't work I know this work, but messey $tmp = FNAME; var fname = document.addrform.{$tmp}.value I'am finding the use of define constants rather awkward. does anyone make much use of them?
