question about javascript

[james_byrne]

i would like to create some buttons with javascript that once you click them they will add text to a textbox. i will try to do a example below.

|----------|
| button |
|----------|

ok click this button will add text to a text box, but it will not delete what i have currently typed.

If anyone has any good tutorials i can read to make this work, or any ideas for me i would really appreciate it.

Thanks in advance for the help.

If I understand you correctly, and you want to add text to the value of the text box, then in about the simplest of terms:

<form action="#">
<input type="button" value="Do It" onclick="this.form.elements['bob'].value += ' Mary';">
<input type="text" name="bob" value="Bob">
</form>
