Is there an HTML code out there like this?

Asked by Quicky (1points) August 15th, 2008 from iPhone

I’m looking for something that all I have to do is create a simple black box and a smaller text box under it with just a submit button and no design. So what I need is a code that allows the text that was entered into the bottom text area to be entered in the black square above. Basically an extremely slimmed down chat room. If it makes sense I just mean everything entered in the small box on the bottom goes into the bigger box above. (sorry if I don’t make sense, Im listening to music watching tv and surfing the web while asking this on my iPod)

You want this to be submitted to the server? so that if someone else go to the site they will se what you wrote?

You will have to use javascript for that.

it depends, if he want the stuff to stay that way from session to session it will need something like php and mysql.

yes exactly like chatroom, everyone can see what everyone wrote

I can’t really help with that. That is a project that you should know what is needed before stepping into.

You need a server with mysql and php support, and a lot of skills to do that.
try one of these tutorials, it might help you: http://www.tutorialized.com/tutorials/PHP/Chat-Systems/1
