newbie javascript help

[cpanon]

Hello
How can I assign a value to, e.g. a text edit box named test? When I create a
function testWriteln() that has document.test.value="hello"; and fire it off an
onClick event nothing happens. What am I missing? Any enlightment welcomed.

U got to learn about JavaScript DOM. go through the link
[url]http://www.informit.com/articles/article.asp?p=29878[/url]

U can either access an element value through..
window.document.formname.elementname.value = 'value';

or

window.document.getElementById('test').value = 'value';

or

window.document.getElementByName('test').value = 'value';
