Generate random security code

[jkkenzie]

I need javascript to generate value like below and the the ability to place it on a forms input value like below php code.

<?php 
$mynumber= rand(673,62389);
echo $mynumber;
?>
<input type="text" value="<?=$mynumber?>">

 

Thanks

Look into using Math.random (and basic arithmetic operators as well as likely Math.floor) for generating a random number and the DOM for changing attributes (particularly the setAttribute method on DOM Elements). Hopefully that's enough keywords to search on.
