CodingForums.com - View Single Post - adding information to text area

Keltoi · 06-21-2002, 04:28 PM

I'm trying to add some content to a text area form element before the content of the text area.

I can do it, so that the added content apears after the text area content but if I switch the script around I get an error.

This works:

Code:

onClick="window.document.formmain.notes.value += 'add this'"

But if I try this then the error occurs:

Code:

onClick="'add this' += window.document.formmain.notes.value"

Any ideas?
