Transfer Question

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Apr 20.2007

If I have a section of a web page specified within a unique id <div> tag,
is it possible to transfer the contents of the tag to a <textarea> box?

I’ve tried this, but without success within the <BODY> section:

[code=php]
<div id=”testdiv”>
Information displayed
within the &lt;div&gt; region.
</div>
<button
onClick=”document.getElementById(‘TArea’).value=document.getElementById(‘testdiv’).innerHTML”
Transfer Information</button>
<textarea id=”TArea” rows=”8″ cols=”50″></textarea>
[/code]

Thanks for any thoughts!.

@gil_davisApr 20.2007 — I got this to work:&lt;div id="testdiv"&gt;
Information displayed
within the &amp;lt;div&amp;gt; region.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;form onsubmit="return false"&gt;
&lt;input type="button" onclick="document.getElementById('TArea').value=document.getElementById('testdiv').innerHTML" value="Transfer Information"&lt;/button&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;textarea id="TArea" rows="8" cols="50"&gt;&lt;/textarea&gt;
&lt;/form&gt;
