Adding contents of a textbox into a string in code output

[schmoose]

Hi all, I am using some code as below to write to a textarea box on my page

    function AddnotificationComm1 (formObj)
    {
        document.getElementById("showCode2").value="Line  has failed, Jenbo have been informed and will attend on"
    }

I have a text box on the page and I need to put its entry into the output within the code above!

The textbox is called "Comm1Lineno" so my code would look something like this but with the correct syntax -

    function AddnotificationComm1 (formObj)
    {
        document.getElementById("showCode2").value="Line "Comm1Lineno" has failed, Jenbo have been informed and will attend on"
    }

"Comm1LineNo" is a text box in the notifications form.

I am used to Vb and have tried a few things here but cant get it in.

I appreciate your help with this - Many Thanks

Rob

Try this:

    function AddnotificationComm1 ()
    {
        document.getElementById("showCode2").value='Line "Comm1Lineno" has failed, Jenbo have been informed and will attend on';
    }

I deleted your variable in the function.
I changed your double quotes to single quotes on the values.
I put a `;` at the end of the line
