Of course it does, you're using undefined variables

But ... in one of the post you told me it didn't.

Thus making the code unusable.

Where? :-\

It will probably work in most browsers due to the way they make elements accessible by name or ID under the global object, but there's nothing that says it ought to.

Never mind, I searched the post but couldn't find it.

This is probably some solution I am looking for. Will have to research much deeper into how exactly I plan on working on this.

I'm thinking possibly an onblur will call a function that will reupdate the text field.
