Well, if I don't use variables (that is, if I depend on the controls to=20
functionally be the variables), then that's not a problem, because the=20
onChange() event will fire when the control's value changes...

But what if I have to add six control values together? What if in the fut=
ure=20
that changes? What if it's dynamic?

Actually, as I think about it I can see ways to do that stuff... but it w=
asn't=20
obvious to me at first. And, as anybody who has seen my sample code, I li=
ke=20
to program for the future as much as I do for the present. That means, wh=
en I=20
want to make changes in functionality in my programs in the future, it's=20
going to be easy- not a lot of code upheaval...
