name

Description

Specifies the name of the control, bookmark, or application.

Syntax

object.name[ = name]

Remarks

The name is used to bind the value of the control when submitting a form. The name is not the value that is displayed for the button, reset, and submit objects. Submitting the form submits the internally stored value, not the one displayed.

JScript allows the name to be changed at run time. This does not cause the name in the programming model to change in the collection of elements, but does change the name used for submitting elements.

This property has read-write permissions, meaning you can change as well as retrieve its current value.

Applies To

A, APPLET, BUTTON, FORM, IMG, INPUT, LINK, MAP, META, OBJECT, SELECT, TEXTAREA
