[RESOLVED] onChange – change bg color

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Aug 17.2007

I’m looking for a line of javascript that will change the background color of an input box when a user types in it.

<input type=”text” onchange=”javascript?make this box yellow when data is entered!)”>

Like that. ? My google-fu has turned up a lot of scripts that I can’t get to work. I don’t want anything fancy. I just can never get the javascript syntax right.

Thank you in advance!

@CriticalMassCowAug 17.2007 — <input type="text" onchange="this.style.background='yellow';">

<input type="text" onkeydown="this.style.background='yellow';">

same effect, just two seperate events.
