get Table cell value

[Sunny]

Hi,

If I have an Html like that:
<input id="testObjectI d" type="text" value="1" />
<table>
<tr>
<td>25</td>
<td>Sunday</td>
<td>0</td>
<td>518</td>
</tr>
</table>

How Can I use "a href" to put value in the Textbox by clicking on
table cell.
somehing like:
<td><a
href="javascrip t:document.getE lementById(test ObjectId).value ='25'>25</
a></td>
Should work:
But this is writing on the screen in a new window instead of a
Textbox.

What to do?

Put the code in an onclick handler
<td onclick="docume nt.getElementBy Id('someId').va lue =
this.firstChild .nodeValue;">25 </td>
or if you need the link
<td><a href="#" onclick="docume nt.getElementBy Id('someId').va lue =
this.firstChild .nodeValue; return false;">25</a></td>

Thanks martin It works.
<table>
<tr>
<td>25</td>
<td>Sunday</td>
<td>0</td>
<td>518</td>
</tr>
</table>
But what if, I want to put a href on Sunday & Want to display 25 in
textbox on click.

Well then assign the string literal '25' as you had in your original
code. Or get fancy with

<table>
<tr>
<td>25</td>
<td onclick="docume nt.getElementBy Id('someId').va lue =
this.parentNode .cells[this.cellIndex - 1].firstChild.nod eValue;">Sunday </td>
