Button to add text to PHP text box

[vampiro2004]

Hi,

 

I am trying to create a button that will work with exsisting code to add input a line of text to a text box.

 

this is the code where i want the text to go:

 

<td width="16%" align="center">Address</td>
   <td width="84%" colspan="5"><input type="text" value="<?php echo $worksheet["CustomerAddress"]; ?>" name="worksheet_address" size="88"></td>
 </tr>

 

I need a button that will put say " west midlands, blah, blah, blah" into the box, i have looked on the net before posting but couldnt seam to egt them to work with my code.

 

TIA

sounds like you need to use javascript to perform said action to fill in text area.

 

you can use;

<input
    type="button" 
    onclick="document.getElementById('myTextArea').value += 'blah blah blah'" 
    value="test" />
<textarea id="myTextArea"></textarea>

 

here is a demo i found for you; jsfiddle
