Re: [xsl] getting combo value,not textbox value

[himanshu padmanabhi <himanshu.padmanabhi@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thank you very much.I have tried this.
But problem here is, I am not submitting to 'one.cgi'.
'form.submit' doesn't work in this case.So I am not getting values
which 'one.cgi' should return.

<xsl:template match="tracks">
    <form name="form1" method="POST" action="one.cgi">
    <table border="1">
        <tr>
            <td> Parameter </td>
            <td> Description </td>
            <td> Value
             <input type="hidden" name="idx" value="{$idx}"/>
             <input type="hidden" name="sidx" value="{$sidx}"/>
             <input type="hidden" name="new" value="{$new}" />
             </td>
        </tr>
        <xsl:apply-templates/>
    </table>
    </form>
    <script>
        document.form1.submit(); <!--tried with
documet.forms.form1.submit also -->
    </script>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="one">

        </td>
        <td>
