Forms

[ScottCool]

Im attempting to create a form that takes the input and generates the input info into pre-set text. For an example if you have: "Hello, my name is (blank)" enter a name it will come out as "Hello, my name is Mike" with the name changing depending on whats typed into the blank. I intend on using forms and check lists on generating a large amount of text depending on the input. I know how to take a variable and give it a value and such but can someone help me with the rest?



script>

var name1 = "mike";

document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML =

"My name is " + name1;

</script>
Now how do I use a form and give the input a variable?

Grab a reference to the element and set the value.

Example:

var some_variable = "Hello World";

document.getElementById("input-persons-name").value = some_variable;
