subModal Advice

GoneShootin

If anyone here knows about subModal, then please help me on this question:

subModal works great for the following example:

showPopWin('mileageclaim.php?mileage_expense_id=57&current_mileage_value='+businessexpenseedit.amount7.value+'&eval_current_subs_amount='+businessexpenseedit.57_subs.value,404,458,null);

And then I use $_GET in my target PHP page and all is well.

However. In my calling page, showPopWin fails with the following example:

showPopWin('mileageclaim.php?mileage_expense_id=57&current_mileage_value='+businessexpenseedit.amount7.value+'&eval_current_subs_amount='+businessexpenseedit.57_subs.value+'$somethign_else='+formname.somethingelse.value,404,458,null);

It seems to be the multiple 's that are causing my problem. So I'm wondering how can I escape them, and yet pass the values through in the examples above.

Cheers!

you can use different quote " or escape ' using \'

Solved it. Turns out it was some other weird aspect.

The form fieldname that I was trying to reference started with a number (db id), something like 57_subs. On a whim I changed it to subs_57 and it worked. Not sure if its an issue with showPopWin or not, but damn odd all the same.

Word to the wise is, don't start your fieldnames with a digit if you want to use JavaScript on em!
