the solution was to hide (set to "off" and hide) all the blocks what

which elements need to be enabled. I do not have much time to 
investigate the problem (I do not fully understand the way how the 
properties names are: for, e.g. "Vl_...", etc.), but the simple code 
could be :

| window.onload=function()
| {
|         if(!document.getElementById ||
|            !document.createTextNode) { return; }
|
|         els = document.forms[0].elements; //gets all children of form
|                                           //number 0
|         s=""; //just for debug
|
|         //iterate all childrens
|         for (i=0; i<els.length; i++) {
|
|             n=document.getElementById("Vl_"+els.item(i).name)
|             if (n!=null) checkIt(els.item(i));
|
|             s=s+"Element "+i+": "+els.item(i).name+"; "+n+"\n";
|
|         }
|         alert(s); //debug
| }
| ------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| Michalis, I hope you'll be able to re-write the code to make it fully 
work. I can help if needed.

Hi Maciej

This doesn't have to happen through javascript. This can be arranged 
inside the servlet code that creates the initial html output. The 
problem lays elsewhere...If I'm going to make such an arrangement I need 
to make it  generic enough so that everyone can use it without having to 
modify any code, right? But in order to do that I have to be sure that 
every one uses the same values for such properties(I mean on and off or 
anything else that is decided) and also that any new such properties 
follow the same rule. If all agree on what the values should be for this 
kind of properties then it would be very simple for me to do it. Off 
course I'll have to have the approval of the people that are in charge 
of content(Gina and Loukik)
