Hello guys
(sorry for my grammar)
The motive of this is a consult, i dont have a high knowledge about js, only the necessary
i saw this link
http://www.javascripttoolbox.com/bestpractices/ number 5
the doubt and consult is the next
when i have a simple "form" with N fields and the "form" declared in this way
where the method ValidationForm() is defined and included how an external file like
i saw in the mentionated link the suggestion 5 "Reference Forms and Form Elements Correctly"
so i apply now in my code the mentioaned suggestion
my really doubt is when i should use getElementById("someid") and
formElements["namefield"] like the way mentionated
maybe the question is silly, but i saw in others pages of the Web that not use
the way suggested (use or work with my wrong way), so i am confused
but i know by a good reference that is necessary and is a good practice
and maybe a rule of gold work with getElementById
(see
http://www.mozilla.org/docs/web-developer/upgrade_2.html )
to access an element in a html page
so which and when i should use the suggested way and getElementById
i am not an expert in javascript
please help to resolve my doubt
thanks so much for advanced
