read <h3> and input?

[sleepysonic]

i was wondering if its possible to read <h3>THIS TEXT IS RANDOM</h3> and put into a text field eg <input type="text" name="nation" value="" /> and
submit?


cheers

document.getElementsByName("nation")[0].value = document.getElementsByTagName("h3")[0].innerHTML;

If you want to submit the form as well, use
document.FORMNAME.submit();

ah thanks that worked but now the code has changed for the text its all spans damn guess there is no way to find the correct one for each letter and input

maybe there is a way to find the text using the div id? i have this <div id="app8743457343_content"

this is the source
<div id="app8743457343_content" fbcontext="2b977181d850">

<span></span><span></span><span></span><span></span><span></span><span></span><span></span><span></span><span>R</span>
<span></span><span></span><span></span><span></span><span></span><span></span><span></span><span></span><span>O</span>
<span></span><span></span><span></span><span></span><span>M</span><span></span><span></span><span></span><span>E</span><span></span><span></span><span></span>

the span were the text is also random so this is probably difficult to code

	div = document.getElementById("app8743457343_content")

	newValue = ""

	for(x = 0; x < div.children.length; x++)
		if(div.children[x].childNodes.length != 0)
			newValue += div.children[x].childNodes[0].nodeValue

	document.getElementsByName("nation")[0].value = newValue

post what you tried. there is a 100% likelyhood you implemented it wrong
