Hello,
I have the following script:

Code: 
<html>
<body>
  <form name=&quot;Form1&quot;>
  <table>
     <tr>
          <td width=&quot;21%&quot; nowrap><b>Property/Investment Name:</b>
            <input type=&quot;text&quot; size=77 name=&quot;pos1&quot; onKeyUp=&quot;document.forms[1].PropertyName.value=this.value&quot;><br />
           </td>
      </tr>
  </table>
  </form>
  <FORM name=&quot;theform&quot; METHOD=&quot;POST&quot; ACTION=&quot;email@company.com&quot;>
  <table>
     Property/Investment Name: &nbsp; <INPUT TYPE=&quot;text&quot; NAME=&quot;PropertyName&quot; SIZE=&quot;30&quot;><br />
  </table>
  </form>
</body>
</html>

Can anyone tell me how i can change this script so that the top text field does not automatically populate the bottom text field.
Instead, i want it to populate the bottom text field upon a button click (submit button).
Any ideas most appreciated.

Thanks,
camcim

  </form>
</body>
</html>
 I have not failed; I have merely found 100,000 different ways of not succeding...
