Create textbox

[johnny-2step]

Good day everyone.  I'm new to the forums.

 

I just wanted to ask if it is possible in javascript to make a script that when a user clicks a button a new textbox will appear.  If he clicks again, another textbox will then appear, so on and so forth.  Without having to refresh the page everytime he clicks the button or loose any information he has already typed within the textbox/s.  If it is, can anyone give a simple script that I can look into.

 

Much thanks for any help.

Piece of cake try this

<script>
function addField(){
var textfield='<input type="text" />';

document.getElementById('dynamic_fields').innerHTML+=textfield;
}
</script>
<div id="dynamic_fields"></div><a href="javascript:addField()">add field</a>

Thank you very much, it works great.  Didn't know it was that simple.  I'll just expound on it for the application I'm building.  Again thanks.

Do note that the value's in the textfields will be lost when you add a new textfield. This you can solve with a for loop checking every value before adding a new textfield
