Heya, Kath. Welcome to TSDN!
Changed thread title to better describe the problem (did you know that threads whose titles do not follow the Posting Guidelines actually get FEWER responses?).

hi ...
please post the code you have tried so far. the idea is to read the innerHTML of the labels you hav and put them into textboxes ... that you already have on your page or you may create them dynamically ... so what solution would you prefer?
kind regards

var parent = el.parentNode;
if ( el.type == 'text' )
{
parent.innerHTML ='<p id="' + el.id + '" />' + el.value + '</p>' ;
}
else
{
parent.innerHTML ='<input type="text" id="' + el.id + '" value="' + el.value + '" />';
}
el = null;
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div>
<input type="text" id="test" size="20" />
</div>

</body>
</html>[/HTML]

The p tag does not have a value attribute, so use el.innerHTML instead when creating the string for the text object.

Do you want to interchange all 4 into labels/text boxes or just the one? If you're going to submit the data, you're going to need text boxes. The p tag values won't pass through.

i want 4 text boxes with some data and if click the submit button, it should change to label containing the data and if i click the button again, it should change to textbox(with data)

Oh right, by 'submit' you just mean a normal button. Do you want a button for each text box or one button for all 4 text boxes?

yes a normal button, a common button for all the text boxes. Can it be done using the DOM objects?

To make this easier, create four text boxes and four P elements. Hide the P elements by setting the display property to "none". Then in the toggle function, just show and hide the text boxes and 'labels' by setting the style.display property to "block" and "none". You can't use parentNode and set its innerHTML because that would overwrite everything in the div. Give each text box and P element a unique id and access them using document.getElementById.
