Hi,

I'm trying to bulid a working (simplified) calculator using JavaScript and have got stuck. Unfortunately I'm on a time limit so any help would be appreciated. I've got this far:

<html>

<head>

    <title>Calculator</title>

<script language="javascript">

var input = "";
function buttonstore(value) {
    input += value;
    document.Calculator.txtAns.value = input;   
}


</script>

</head>

<body>

<form name="Calculator" action="">
<table border="2" width="250" bgcolor="#003366">

    <tr>
        <td colspan="4" width="240" height="40" align="center" valign="center"><input type="text" value="0" name="txtAns"></td>
    </tr>

    <tr>
        <td colspan="2" width="120" height="40" align="center"><input type="button" value="          C          " name="btnCanc" onClick="buttonstore()"></td>
        <td width="60" height="40" align="center"><input type="button" value="  /  " name="btnDiv" onClick="buttonstore(/)"></td>
        <td width="60" height="40" align="center"><input type="button" value="  x  " name="btnMult" onClick="buttonstore(x)"></td>
    </tr>


    <tr>
        <td width="60" height="40" align="center"><input type="button" value="  7  " name="btn7" onClick="buttonstore(7)"></td>
        <td width="60" height="40" align="center"><input type="button" value="  8  " name="btn8" onClick="buttonstore(8)"></td>
        <td width="60" height="40" align="center"><input type="button" value="  9  " name="btn9" onClick="buttonstore(9)"></td>
        <td width="60" height="40" align="center"><input type="button" value="  -  " name="btnSub" onClick="buttonstore(-)"></td>
    </tr>    

    <tr>
        <td width="60" height="40" align="center"><input type="button" value="  4  " name="btn4" onClick="buttonstore(4)"></td>
        <td width="60" height="40" align="center"><input type="button" value="  5  " name="btn5" onClick="buttonstore(5)"></td>
        <td width="60" height="40" align="center"><input type="button" value="  6  " name="btn6" onClick="buttonstore(6)"></td>
        <td width="60" height="40" align="center"><input type="button" value="  +  " name="btnAdd" onClick="buttonstore(+)"></td>
    </tr>

    <tr>
        <td width="60" height="40" align="center"><input type="button" value="  1  " name="btn2" onClick="buttonstore(1)"></td>
        <td width="60" height="40" align="center"><input type="button" value="  2  " name="btn5" onClick="buttonstore(2)"></td>
        <td width="60" height="40" align="center"><input type="button" value="  3  " name="btn3" onClick="buttonstore(3)"></td>
        <td rowspan="2" width="60" height="80" align="center"><input type="button" value="  =  " name="btnEquals" onClick="buttonstore(=)"></td>
    </tr>

    <tr>
        <td colspan="2" width="120" height="40" align="center"><input type="button" value="          0          " name="btn0" onclick="buttonstore(0)"></td>
        <td width="60" height="40" align="center"><input type="button" value="  .  " name="btnDot"></td>

    </tr>
</form>
</body>

</html>

Where to next? Any ideas??

Thanks
