Re: Easy Javascript function too much for me

The answering may be a bit late.
For the help of others too, who may be messing with this, I reply to this still.
The solution would have been a script.

var a = document.getElementById("Aa");
var value = a.value;
var value2=a.options[e.selectedIndex].text;
document.getElementById("Hiddenfield").value="Aaaaaaa"; (Based on the select value)
