Hi,
I need help no this web page that i'm making, I think it's a bit too simple for you guys :), so here goes nothing....
I need a text box like:
<input value="Click here to clear text" name="nome" type="text">
That actually clears the text when you click on it...
I tried the onClick="" tag but as I looked up it´s just for buttons, right?
Hoping somebody can help me out, yours trully: Braga_ESI
you can use "onfocus"
<script language="javascript">
<!--
function clearinputText() {
document.frm.name.value= "";
}
//-->
</script><input type="text" name="name" value="Click here to clear text" onfocus="clearinputText();">but this will clear the text every time when you get focus on this field,
Its a simple example only
best regards

onClick will work on most elements, onfocus is more appropriate for a text input, as tabbing to a field also counts as focus...
try:
<input type="text" value="Click here to clear text" onfocus="if(!this._haschanged){this.value=''};this._haschanged=true;"/>it will only clear the text once.. i assume you want to actually put something in the text afterwards,,

mine is a javascript solution aswell, but it's all squashed into one parameter line. you could expand it to:
<script type="text/javascript">
function checkclear(what){
if(!what._haschanged){
what.value=''
};
what._haschanged=true;
}
</code>
<input type="text" value="Click here to clear text" onfocus="checkclear(this)"/>and then use "checkclear(this)" as the onfocus property for all text inputs that you want to have the same behaviour.
If this is a form, have you tried
<input type="reset" value="Reset!">eeek >_< i hate those buttons!
if you've just spent umpteen minutes finding information and filling out a form; would you EVER want to reset it rather than submit it?
how about this one?
<input type="reset" value="Submit!">EDIT: :lol:
<html>
<input type="reset" value="Reset!">
</html>
this code doesn't clear textboxes
<html>
<body>
<!--Data-->
<form>
Full Name:
<input type="text" size="30"/></br>
E-mail Address:
<input type="text" size="30"/></br>
Password:
<input type="password" size="30"/></br>
Repeat Password: <input type="password" size="30"/></br>
<!--buttons-->
<a href="regsuccess.html">
<input type="submit" value="Register">
</a>
<input type="reset" value="Clear"/>
</form>
</body>
</html>try it..
oh that's just the same.. thnx anyways.
Please Try this <marquee style="font-weight: bold;scrollamount:4;scrolldenay:78;width:500;"> This code is for text moving.
