I am using the jQuery library to copy the text enter in one textfield

  • 0

I am using the jQuery library to copy the text enter in one textfield to another textfield using a check box when clicked.. which is as follows:

<html>
<head>
    <script src="js/jquery.js" ></script>
</head>
<body>
    <form>
        <input type="text" name="startdate" id="startdate" value=""/>
        <input type="text" name="enddate" id="enddate" value=""/>
        <input type="checkbox" name="checker" id="checker" />
    </form>
    <script>
    $(document).ready(function(){
            $("input#checker").bind("click",function(o){
                if($("input#checker:checked").length){
                    $("#enddate").val($("#startdate").val());
                }else{
                    $("#enddate").val("");
                }
            });
        }
    );
    </script>
</body>
</html>

Now here I want the check box to be selected by default, so that the data entered in start date get copied automatically as check box is checked by default… so what event should be called here in jQuery script?

Please help me in resolving this issue… Solutions given below is not working for me…

    You would want the value to be copied whenever there is a change, so you can use the keypress event:

    function copyDate() {
  if($("#checker").is(":checked")){
    $("#enddate").val($("#startdate").val());
  }
}

$(function(){
  $("#startdate").keypress(copyDate).click(copyDate);
});
