How to read input from text on button click unobtrusively in Javascript? Can anyone provide a sample?
<script type="text/javascript>
window.onload = function() {
var btn = document.getElementById(
"btn"
);
btn.addEventListener("click",function() { alert("bar"); },false);
}
</script>
and in the body:
<div id="content">
<input type="text" id="percent" value="" />
<button id="btn">click</button></div>
Yes, addEventListener (with IE's attachEvent) is the most unobtrusive. To get the value of the textbox you simply use the .value
property of the textbox.
<script type="text/javascript">
window.onload = function () {
var btn = document.getElementById("btn");
if (btn.addEventListener) {
btn.addEventListener("click", btnClick, false);
} else if (btn.attachEvent) {
btn.attachEvent("onclick", btnClick);
}
};
function btnClick() {
alert(document.getElementById("percent").value);
}
</script>
