Here is the working script if anyone is interested.
I was missing the else if.
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function Trip_Time(Traffic_Results) {
if (document.Traffic_Results.CIP_Diff.value == "point1") {
document.Traffic_Results.display_time.value = "2:20";
document.Traffic_Results.display_time2.value = "4:30"; }
else if (document.Traffic_Results.CIP_Diff.value == "point2") {
document.Traffic_Results.display_time.value = "8:20";
document.Traffic_Results.display_time2.value = "11:30"; }
else if (document.Traffic_Results.CIP_Diff.value == "point3") {
document.Traffic_Results.display_time.value = "1:20";
document.Traffic_Results.display_time2.value = "6:30"; }
else {
document.Traffic_Results.display_time.value = "0:00";
document.Traffic_Results.display_time2.value = "0:00";
}
}
// -->
</SCRIPT>

I'm doing the same thing in a page I'm working on right now, and it does NOT
work:
The text displayed in indeed updated.
But when the form is sent, it's the PREVIOUS contents of the text field that
are sent !?!
Same problem with IE6 and NS6.

Oops,
my mistake, the javascript work.
It's the php on the server side that was wrong.
