Inserting javascript variables into textarea from a form


Xanco

Recommended Posts

Hello peoples.

Right, here's what I'm trying to do; the player fills in 2 forms, then those entries are to be saved as javascript variables and printed into a textarea, along with some other text. This will go onto creating a link in HTML.

 

I want these variables:

 

var address= document.getElementById('address');
var webname= document.getElementById('webname');

To be inserted into a text area, Here's my full function:

 

function insertaddress(){
var address= document.getElementById('address')
var webname= document.getElementById('webname')
insert (window.lstText,'<a href=')
insert (window.1stText, var address)
insert (window.1stText, '>')
insert (window.1stText. var webname)
insert (window.1stText. '</a>')
document.getElementById("webaddressenter").style.display="none";
}

And here's my form:

 

<form id="webaddressenter" style="display:none;">
<label for="address">Your URL:</label>
<input type="text" name="address" value="" placeholder="http:www.google.com" id="address"/><br />
<label for="webname">Website name:</label>
<input type="text" name="webname" value="" placeholder="Google" id="webname"/><br />
<input type="button" value="submit" onclick="insertaddress()" id="tag" />
</form>

Can you see what I need to do ?

 - Thanks, Xanco.
