Say I have this text box:

<input type=text id=myText placeholder=Enter Name Here>

Upon pressing a button, I would like to send the value entered into this div:

<div id=text2></div>

I'm not entirely sure how to do this. Do I create a function and call it to the div? How would I do that?

Could someone clear this up for me? Thanks.

Add an onclick to your button:

<input type=button id=somebutton onclick=addText()>

Then write the javascript:

function addText()

{

    document.getElementById('text2').innerHTML = document.getElementById('myText').value;

}
