<div>
You'd have to store the value of the first in a temporary variable then reset the value of the first to the value of the second, then set the value of the second to the temporary value.<br />
<br />

<pre><code id="code-20-37021223-1">var in1 = document.getElementById('input1'), in2 = document.getElementById('input2');
var temp = in1.value;
in1.value = in2.value;
in2.value = temp;</code></pre>
</div>

var in1 = document.getElementById('input1'), in2 = document.getElementById('input2');
var temp = in1.value;
in1.value = in2.value;
in2.value = temp;

<div>
Unless the calues are numbers, then you don't need a temp var
<pre><code id="code-20-37021558-1">//
var a = document.getElementById('input1'), // Assume value = 7
    b = document.getElementById('input2'); // Assume value = 4

a.value = a.value + b.value; // a = 11
b.value = a.value - b.value; // b = 7 (was 4)
a.value = a.value - b.value; // a = 4 (was 7)
//</code></pre>
</div>

And by &quot;calues&quot;, I, of course, meant &quot;values&quot;.

And by "calues", I, of course, meant "values".

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I have a form with 8 text/inputs - what I wanted to try and do - ideally - is to &quot;grab&quot; the value from one input and &quot;drop&quot; them onto another input - so, the two input values would swap places - is that possible - if so how? &nbsp;I assume jQuery?

Swap Input Values

Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (AJAX) is a group of interrelated Web development techniques used on the client-side to create asynchronous Web applications. With AJAX, web applications can send data to and retrieve from a server asynchronously (in the background) without interfering with the display and behavior of the existing page. HTML and CSS can be used in combination to mark up and style information. The Document Object Model (DOM) is accessed with JavaScript to dynamically display and allow interaction with the information presented.

AJAX

JavaScript is a dynamic, object-based language commonly used for client-side scripting in web browsers. Recently, server side JavaScript frameworks have also emerged. JavaScript runs on nearly every operating system and  in almost every mainstream web browser.

JavaScript

Web development includes all aspects of presenting content on intranets and the Internet, including delivery development, protocols, languages and standards, server software, browser clients, databases and multimedia generation.
