Menu
I’m new to javascript and I cannot work this out despite looking around a lot and trying to work through all the form functions etc that Javascript has.
I have a script (below) that works fine however i want to keep the data entered by the user so that when they add another session it just adds another set of times to the bottom, without loosing their already entered data.
If you know how to do this please let me know!
Thankyou sooo much for any help!
