This code changes whatever the user types in the box to uppercase, and displays the result in the box.
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function upperCase(x)
{
var y=document.getElementById(x).value;
document.getElementById(x).value=y.toUpperCase();
document.getElementById("mySpan").value=y.toUpperCase();
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
Enter your name: <input type="text" id="fname" onkeyup="upperCase(this.id)">
<br/>
<span id="mySpan"></span>
</body> </html>
But how can I make it so that it displays it UNDER the text box? And that when the user types, the upper case text is displayed under the text box?
Thanks!
I would suggest the following, more maintainable approach, which uses the event registration model as opposed to the inline model:
JS:
<script>
document.getElementById("fname").onkeyup = function() {
document.getElementById("mySpan").innerHTML = this.value.toUpperCase();
}
</script>
Markup:
Enter your name: <input type="text" id="fname"/>
<br/>
<span id="mySpan"></span>
