I am trying to get the value of an input and display it in a div under it, while the user is typing. and i want to do it with vanilla js. no j query.
MY HTML:
<div id="userInputBox">
<input id="inputText" type="text"
placeholder="Enter your question" size = "50" onkeyup="myDisplay()"/>
</div>
<div class="displayQuestion"></div>
MY JS:
var input = document.getElementById('inputText').value;
var showQuestion = document.getElementsByClassName('displayQuestion');
function myDisplay(e){
showQuestion.innerHTML = input;
}
Try this:
function myDisplay(e) {
var input = document.getElementById('inputText').value;
var showQuestion = document.getElementById('displayQuestion');
showQuestion.innerHTML = input;
}
<div id="userInputBox">
<input id="inputText" type="text"
placeholder="Enter your question" size = "50" onkeyup="myDisplay(this.value)"/>
</div>
<div id="displayQuestion"></div>
