How to make when we tick on checkbox and another input will fill up automatically

Form by example.

$开发者_开发问答fullname = 'John Travolta';

<input type="text" name="fullname" />
<input name="same" type="checkbox" /> Tick if same name

1. When we tick on the checkbox the input fullname will insert automatically by data from $fullname
2. How to do that by javascript, jquery or etc ?

You should use javascript (or JQuery, which is a javascript library) to do this, but since $fullname is probably a PHP variable you will need to use that too.

A simple javascript example (which can probably done a bit neater with JQuery) that uses the php variable:

<input id="fullname" type="text" name="fullname" />
<input id="same" name="same" type="checkbox" 
   onchange="javascript:samename('<?php echo htmlspecialchars($fullname) ?>')" />

this calls a javascript function that should look something like

function samename(fullname) {
  same = document.getElementById('same');
  full = document.getElementById('fullname');
  if(same.checked) {
    full.value = fullname;
  } else {
    full.value = '';
  }
}

Obviously, $fullname needs to be a JavaScript variable for this to work:

<script type="text/javascript">
    var fullname = 'John Travolta'; // can be entered on server side

    $('#check').change(function() {
        if ($('#check').attr('checked') == 'checked')
            $('#text').val(fullname);
    });
</script>

<!-- I like using this.checked instead of $.attr -->
<script type="text/javascript">
  var fullname = "John Travolta"; // via PHP "<?= $fullname ?>";

  $("#same").change(function() {
    if (this.checked) {
      $("input[name=fullname]").val(fullname);
    }
  });
</script>
