updating value in html table via javascript

Question

Hi is there any way to upadte cell value with no events (i dont want to use 'onClick' or others)?

The scheme is: user is filling form value, then clicks 'ok', and then value should be showed in cell in html table ?

thx in advance for all help

Without events ... How will your code know when the 'ok' button is clicked? — Karl Johan

i mean no events in table like: <table id="xxx" onClick="myFunc()"> — Jurij Gagarin

Please try to be more clear. Do you want no events at all? Or just not on the table? In that last case you can just use a button in the <form> where you have the input field and add the onclick event to that button.. — Stephan Muller

Well, you can use a link with href="javascript:myFunction()" instead of an onclick, but I'm not sure if that counts as an event :)

No, you need to hook up on an even to trigger it.

Since the user is going to click the Ok link anyways that seems to be the most relevant place to invoke your javascript from.
