How can a javascript function produce links to another javascript function that will action when clicked ? link() writes the link but it is not active. Neither window.location = ""; as page refresh nor document.write() seem to help.

function function1()
{
var ss = "a";
var ii = 1;
var uu = "javascript:function2(" + ii + ")";
var vv = ss.link(uu);
ss = "b";
ii = 2;
uu = "javascript:function2(" + ii + ")";
vv += " " + ss.link(uu);
document.getElementById("myinput").value = vv; //writes text, not active links
}
 
Hi

If has [tt]value[/tt] property then it is either [tt]input[/tt], [tt]select[/tt], [tt]option[/tt] or [tt]textarea[/tt] - none of those can contain any HTML.
If has no [tt]value[/tt] property then can not do anything with it.

Use [tt]innerHTML[/tt] instead :
