I’m no expert but this may help a little.

<input type="text" id="myBox">
<span id="mySpan">Waiting for user action</span>

And a bit of jQuery to update the SPAN.

$("#myBox").keyup(function() {
    var myBoxContents = $("#myBox").val();
    var mySpanContents = $("#mySpan").text();
    $("#mySpan").html(myBoxContents+"<br>"+mySpanContents);
});
