Jquery to populate input or textarea

javascript, jquery

Solution

If you want to use pure JavaScript instead of jQuery, try this:

<form><textarea id="ta"></textarea></form>
<script type="text/javascript">
    jah = "whatever you want";
    var ta = document.getElementById('ta');
    ta.value = jah;
</script>

Assigning `.value` equals jQuery function `.val(v);`

Problem

``` <div id="example"></div> <script type="text/javascript"> jah = "<p>Browser CodeName: " + navigator.appCodeName + "</p>"; jah+= "<p>Browser Name: " + navigator.appName + "</p>"; jah+= "<p>Browser Version: " + navigator.appVersion + "</p>"; jah+= "<p>Cookies Enabled: " + navigator.cookieEnabled + "</p>"; jah+= "<p>Platform: " + navigator.platform + "</p>"; jah+= "<p>User-agent header: " + navigator.userAgent + "</p>"; document.getElementById("example").innerHTML=jah; </script> ``` I'm using the above code to compile some browser info I need to collect from a form. How can I get that info passed to a Input or Textarea? Thanks in advance!
