Javascript Forms

[Derebane]

How do you write a script that adds text in a textfield just by clicking on a button or submittng the form?

[Khalid Ali]

document.formName.textFieldName.value='someText';

as the above line in any event(onclick??)

[Derebane]

onClick and onSubmit yes. But what if I want to keep text in the textarea that has been entered manually and let the new text append to it?

Oh, I solved it now. A matter of writing += instead och =
