You can do it with functions if you want to be more flexible. Something like:

<head>

<script language="_javascript_">

function replaceValue(whatid,withvalue)
{
document.getElementById("whatid").value = withvalue;
return true;
}

</script>
</head>

<body>

Input 1:
<input type="text" id="textOne" name="textOne" />
<br />
<br />
Carbon Copy:
<input type="text" id="carbonText" name="carbonText">

</body>

Okay, I think that will work. I didn't test it, just typed it in gmail. Good luck.

There's as many ways to do this as there are developers. The answer in this case is yes, and...

You could also do this unobtrusively, with no need to mark anything up in the view.

//in the head
<script src="" type="text/_javascript_"></script>
<script type="text/_javascript_">
Event.observe(window,'load', function(){
new Form.Element.Observer('print_name',
0.3,
function(elm,value){
$('i_name').value = value;
}
);
});
</script>

//in the body

<input id="print_name" name="print_name" type="text" />
<input id="i_name" name="i_name" type="text" />

This sets up an observer that watches the first element for any changes, and every 300 milliseconds updates the second element with the current value of the first.

Hi,

Maybe I'm misunderstanding all the kind help here.

Should a line like this work or do I need to call a function?

<input name="print_name" id="print_name" type="text" style="height:25px; width: 400px;" value="print_name" size="8" maxlength="32" = print_name.value" />

Hi Bob,
Use an onkeyup or onblur event...

Hi,

On a form I wish to fill field2 with a value I am typing into field1.

I realize I can do this with an onclick but isn't there a way to , for instance do it with onreturn?
