AW: AW: [Javascript] addin <input fields> via visibility or similar?

[junado at junado.com (Julien Nadeau)]

You can probably use:

var ordersNumRows = document.getElementsByTagName("input").length;

if you have to count all your input fields, then alter that value by  
the amount of fixed, non counted, input fields.

Otherwise, if you really want a bullet proof method, you'll have to  
use something like this:

function countRows() {
     var orderNumRows = 0;
     var inputFields = document.getElementsByTagName("input")
     var numTag = inputFields.length;
     for (i=0; i<numTag; i++) {
         if (inputFields[i].getAttribute("name") == "test[]") {
             orderNumRows++;
         }
     }

     alert(orderNumRows);
}

This returned "2" for the following HTML:

<input name="test[]" type="text" />
<input name="test[]" type="text" />
<input name="other" type="text" />

Hope this helps,
