Urgent!!! PHP: text input field auto creation

**casy** · 05-10-2003, 09:34 PM

Can anyone tell me how to create a new text field upon entering another field?

Such that when i enter something into the 1st input text field, e 2nd one is created automatically within the same page without page refreshing??

Is it possible anyway??

Kinda urgent here, pls help!!!

PHP is server side, and thus the page must be refreshed to affect a change. But, you can do this with javascript, if that is a possibility. Take a look at this sample code:

Code:

<html>
<head>

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function showField() {
	if (document.myform.text01.value != "") {
		document.myform.text02.style.display = "block";
	}
}
</script>

</head>
<body>

<form name="myform">
<input type="text" name="text01" onkeyup="showField();">
<input type="text" name="text02" style="display:none">
</form>

</body>
</html>

something like this :<input type=text name=elect[]>

where all inputs are kept in an array and at the same time i wish to put it in a table display??
