This is a function which is to validate an uncertain number of
customers each time. How do i make the first example work :

this doesent work :

verify('document.form.output' + customerno
,document.getElementById('e-mail'+ customerno).value );

but this does :
verify('document.form.output' ,document.getElementById('e-mail'
).value );

No, no.

verify(document.form.elements
["output"+customerno].value,document.form.elements["e-
mail"+customerno].value);

assuming: the function verify expects 2 strings as params, that both
form elements are indeed strings and not blank, that the form is named
"form" (bad practice BTW), that customerno has a defined value, and that
the elements "e-mail" and "output" exist on form "form".

No, no.

verify(document.form.elements
["output"+customerno].value,document.form.elements["e-
mail"+customerno].value);

assuming: the function verify expects 2 strings as params,

it expects (String, value)

that both form elements are indeed strings and not blank, that the

form is >named "form" (bad practice BTW), that customerno has a
defined value, and that

the elements "e-mail" and "output" exist on form "form".

Yes all true
it takes (String, value) and handles a empty value

All i need is to get this going :

verify('String' + uniqueIndex ,document.getElementById['name' +
uniqueIndex].value);

But when i try this i get an error message saying uniqueIndex is
undefined
even though i have defined it

Post your code. All of it in a full html doc so I can test it.
Either that or a link.
