I have a jsfiddle here: https://jsfiddle.net/gemcodedigitalmarketing/zn5yLwh3/

What I want is the text in the customText input to be appended to the canvas. Though I am unsure as to why this is not working.

It works when I tried yesterday to append td and tr to a table. But maybe because its a canvas it needs a different way of adding text?

not sure... either way i would apprecaite help.

$('#addText').click(function() { var value = $('#customText').val(); $('canvas').append('<p>' + value + '</p>'); }); 

This is my jquery at the bottom of the page

<div class="assets"> <h3>Assets</h3> <div class="text"> <h4>Text</h4> <input id="customText" type="text"> <button id="addText" class="btn btn-default">Add Text</button> <p></p> </div> <div class="image"> <h4>Images</h4> <ul class="list-unstyled"> <!-- List of images here --> <!-- <li><img src="images/sample.jpeg" class="img-rounded" /></li> --> </ul> </div> 

This is the relevant html.

Hope that gives you guys enough to go on...
