How to insert a value into value="" attribute fro a javascript?

[bodilima]

Dear All,

I'm new to this!

I wanna insert selected values from form "SaveModel" to form "SaveMake" [HTML]<input name="makeID" value="<<<<need to insert here(x)>>>>">[/HTML]
&
[HTML]<input name="make" value="<<<<need to insert here(optvalue)>>>>">[/HTML]

when i try it works only for the selected value and in an instance it clears the <input...>.

Please help me on this.


This is my Java Script.

<script type="text/javascript">
function alertMake(){
    var x = document.getElementById("selectMake").selectedIndex;
    var optvalue = document.getElementsByTagName("option")[x].text;
    var ex = "This will update all the Models under Make " + optvalue;
    var r=confirm(ex)
  if (r==true)
    {
    document.getElementById('min').innerHTML= SaveMake.makeID.value = x;
    document.getElementById('mine').innerHTML= SaveMake.make.value = optvalue;
 
    }
  else
    {
    optvalue = "";
    x = "";
    document.getElementById('min').innerHTML= SaveMake.makeID.value = x;
    document.getElementById('mine').innerHTML= SaveMake.make.value = optvalue;
 
    }
 
}
</script>
 

This is a part of my SaveMMY.php

[PHP]<form action="SaveMMY.php" name="SaveMake" method="post">
Make ID: <input id="min" name="makeID" type="text" value="" size="5" readonly="true">
Make:<input type="text" id="mine" name="make" value="<?php if(isset($EditMake)) echo ($make) ;?>">
<input type="submit" name="SaveMake" value="Save">
</form>

<form action="SaveMMY.php" name="SaveModel" method="post">
Make: <select name="selectMake">
<option value="0">Select Make</option>
<?php echo ($allMakesHtml); ?>
</select>
<input type="submit" name="EditMake" value="Edit Make" onClick="alertMake()" >
</form>[/PHP]

Welcome to TSDN!

Change line 9 in your JavaScript to:

document.getElementById('min').value = x;

and similarly for line 10, 17 and 18. You've accessed the element. It has a value attribute. Use it instead of innerHTML.
