I'm trying to use an input to allow the end user to change the href of an a element using JavaScript, and I can't seem to get things working quite right.
Here's what I have so far...
<input type="text" id="feed" /> <a id="display" href="">#</a> $('#feed').keyup(function () { var temp = ""; temp = $('#feed').text.val(); $('#display').href = temp; }); Any help is much appreciated!
Remove the .text that will throws error in console. To get the value you just need to use val() method on jQuery object.
Since $('#display') returns a jQuery object you need to use attr() to update an attribute (or use prop() and update href property) or you need to get dom object by $('#display')[0] and update href property.
$('#feed').keyup(function () { var temp = $('#feed').val(); $('#display').attr('href', temp); }); 
$('#display').attr('href', temp) to assign the href if you were so inclined.I assume the $ means you're using jQuery.
$('#feed').keyup(function () { var temp = ""; temp = $('#feed').val(); $('#display').attr('href', temp); });
