Value of selected list

I have a select list with dynamic content such

Honorar, 120.00
Porti, 7.50
Spesen, 12.00

This values are stored x_ko_leistungsart. I am selecting only one option (no multi selection) and would like to have the values after comma such 120.00 for Honorar and 7.50 if the the option porti is selected.

I am using the following function to get these values. unfortunately it does not work. I get only the value 10 assiged...

Could you please have a look to the code where the mistake can be? Regards thanks mpol_ch

function SelectAnsatz() {
    document.fkostenedit.x_ko_ansatz.value = '10';
    var Ansatz=0;  
    var splitted;  
    var elements = document.getElementsByName("x_ko_leistungsart[]");
    splitted = elements.nextSibling.nodeValue.split(",");
    Ansatz = parseFloat(splitted[1]);
    document.fkostenedit.x_ko_ansatz.value = Ansatz.toFixed(2);
}
Solution

  • Take a look at document.getElementsByName("x_ko_leistungsart[]");

    I'll give you a hint: The "value" you're getting from that is not what you're expecting. You can reduce at least two lines of code by expanding on the getElementByName function.
