You can't, you need a server side language or javascript

Can I write it down inside the tag without calling any function something like
<input type="text" name="DayOfTheWeek" value="javascript.dateDay(
Thanks
<input type="text" name="DayOfTheWeek" value="javascript.dateDay(
Thanks
No it would have to be a separate function outside the input.

document.javascript.DayOfT
Something like that
Something like that
There is no such thing as the name of a day in javascript - you have to create it yourself
And you cannot have javascript in an input that will fire automatically
