[thelist] Dynamic Text changes

[Mark Anderson]

Karen,
Thanks for that I have been told it must be cross browser compatible so I
guess at least IE and Netscape. Am I correct in assuming Netscape and Moz
are similar?

Mark

Hi Mark, what browsers are you targetting?

The following works in Moz:

-------- js code ----------------
function swapIt() {
    var elTb = document.getElementById('textbox_1').value;
    var elTa = document.getElementById('textarea_1').value;
    elTa = elTa + " " + elTb;
}

-------- form code --------------
<form>
    <input type="Text"
       name="textbox_1"
       id="textbox_1"
       value="blah blah"
       onchange="swapIt();">
    <br>
    <textarea
       cols="20"
       rows="10"
       name="textarea_1"
       id="textarea_1">original text</textarea>
    <br>
</form>
