Display html form values in same page after submit using javaScript

Method 1

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head lang="en">
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <script language="JavaScript">
    function showInput() {
        document.getElementById('display').innerHTML = 
                    document.getElementById("user_input").value;
    }
  </script>

  </head>
<body>

  <form>
    <label><b>Enter a Message</b></label>
    <input type="text" name="message" id="user_input">
  </form>

  <input type="submit" onclick="showInput();"><br/>
  <label>Your input: </label>
  <p><span id='display'></span></p>
</body>
</html>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Another way you can do that. Point to be noted input type is button

<input type="button" onclick="showMessage()" value="submit" />

Follow this code:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>HTML JavaScript output on same page</title>
    <script type="text/JavaScript">
        function showMessage(){
            var message = document.getElementById("message").value;
            display_message.innerHTML= message;
        }
    </script>
</head>
<body>
<form>
Enter message: <input type="text" id = "message">
<input type="button" onclick="showMessage()" value="submit" />
</form>
<p> Message is: <span id = "display_message"></span> </p>
</body>
</html>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
