So what do I do, <dtml-var form['oname:required'].value> would seem the logical choice for syntax. Correct? --sam Phil Harris wrote:

JScript attributes are also dictionary items, so you can set/access attributes whose names aren't legal identifiers using the dictionary syntax:
form['oname:required'].value
I haven't tried it, but I don;t think this is what I want. basically, I want to have Javascript do some validation of the entry in the form after they hit the 'submit' button, but before it reaches Zope. Therefore, I need to be able to access form.oname:required.value from inside the html/javascript, independant of Zope.

If I have a form field name of "oname:required", in order to allow zope to force an entry in that field, how can I access the value of that field from javascript. The normal form.fieldname.value doesn't work, since it would look like 'form.oname:required.value' and javascript barfs on that. There must be a solution to this, anyone know what it is?
