So, I know how to type text into a javascript box and have it appear on
the page. But when I refresh the page, all the text posted to the page
vanishes. So, what I was asking was: Can I make the text I paste to
the page with javascript STAY there, so that even after I refresh the
page, it is still there. Sort of like a guestbook.
Not with Javascript. This would have to be done server-side.
For small amounts of text, I suppose you could store it in a cookie and
read that cookie when reloading. But for guestbook-like pages, where
the user content becomes a permanent part of the page, you will need
some server-side code and some persistence mechanism. All that is far
outside the scope of the JQuery mailing list, though.
