Your scope of x is the issue. x is local to jobID. Declare x outside of the function.
var x;
function jobID(form){
x = document.forms["JobIdForm"]["jobid"].value;
return false;
}

This didn't work either. I must have more problems with my code. But thanks for that fix anyway.
try something like this:
js
$(function(){ //equivalent to $(document).read(function(){});
//you are running "joID(form)" on submit now, but have it written/called right in the html. i try to avoid that.
$("form[name='JobIdForm']").submit(function(event){
//i did not see an actual form[action] value, so I preventDefault() to call that out
event.preventDefault();
//we want the value in bob, so I have jQuery create a <div> and throw the input value between the element tags
$("#bob").append($("<div>"+$(this).find("input[name='jobid']").val()+"</div>");
});
});
html needed to make the above work:
<form name="JobIdForm" action="" method="post">
<label>Job ID <input type="text" name="jobid"></label>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>

yes, j08691's post about the x var scope is why it is not working atm
Greg Peckory
I will post all of my code, I may have another problem in my code.
Greg Peckory
I wanted to avoid this because I think my code is a bit messy to be reading on your end
Greg Peckory
never mind the scope issue fixed the problem, i never noticed because I did not save my work before running. Rookie mistake.
