Is is possible to assign a dynamic variable to a field name?

Consider that I have several field names in my app QQ_Leg1_To, QQ_Leg2_To etc..

$('#m1-QuickQuote-QQ_Leg1_To').val()

Is it possible to code this as

$('#m1-QuickQuote-QQ_Leg[b]&Num[/b]_To').val()

where I pass a value (2 for example) to &Num and the widget is recognized as

$('#m1-QuickQuote-QQ_Leg2_To').val()

in my function?

If not could someone suggest an approach that would accomplish the same thing?

Hope I made my objective clear… If not please ask..

Thank you,

apologies… the [b] stuff was supposed to bold the dynamic variable I used in my example. it should simply be &Num

Hi aviator21114,

It is not very clear where do you get the var num, but this should help you to getting started. Change the value of num var for the value of a textfield, combobox or any other widget you are using.

var num = 5;
var select = '#m1-QuickQuote-QQ_Leg' + num + '_To';
$(select).val()

Hope this make sense, let me know how it goes.

Octavio,

That construct makes perfect sense and helps immensely.. I will test this and implement..

Thank you,
