Hey guys, I couldn't decide if this should go in the HTML/CSS or Javascript forums.
I've made a big form and now I need to make sure all the form elements have a unique ID so that they can be processed with Javascript. I don't need to write any Javascript, just prepare the form as if I was going to.
At the moment it just looks like this:
html

It's not finished, but I thought I might as well get this Javascript bit out of the way before I go any further.
Could someone please show me what I need to do to make sure all the elements are unique?
Thanks.
