newbie - onclick or onchange assistance

[mooby1231]

I am trying to use an onclick or onchange inline event to trigger a change the input type in my html form, I have been researching this for quite some time, but can't figure it out. I could really use some help. I think it will work if I can trigger the event based on the clients radio button selection.

 

<form name="selectiontype">

<input type="radio" name="selecttype" Value="one" />selection1

<input type="radio" name="selecttype" Value="one" />selection2

<input type="radio" name="selecttype" Value="one" />selection3

<input type="radio" name="selecttype" Value="three" />selection4

<p>Please enter your type selection</p>

<input type="text" name="myElement" id="myElement" />

<script>

var i = 5;

var x = 6;

if (selecttype = three) {{

for (i = 5; i < 12; i++) {

myElement.getElementById('myElement').type = 'password';}}

if (selecttype = one) {{

for (x = 6; x < 13; x++) {

myElement.getElementById('myElement').type = 'password';}}

var i = 11;

var x = 12;

if (selecttype = three) {{

for (i=11; i < 16; i++) {

myElement.getElementById('myElement').type = 'text';}}

if (selecttype = one) {{

for (x=12; x < 17; x++) {

myElement.getElementById('myElement').type = 'text';}}

</script>

<input type="Submit" value="done" />

</form>

You can put a click event on those radio buttons. Right now all of that Javascript code only runs once, as soon as it displays the form. It's not inside an event handler.

Where is this "onclick or onchange inline event" that you say you are using?
