Hi,

Just have a look at this code

< module name="HiddenSearch" layoutPanel="panel_row2_col1"  autoRun="True">
    < param name="search">index="someindex" sourcetype="somesourcetype" |top  limit=1 E2E_busProcType< /param>
    < param name="earliest">-7d< /param>
        < module name="HTML" layoutPanel="panel_row2_col1">
        < param  name="html">
                <![CDATA[

< script type="text/javascript" >
          function call()
          {
       document.getElementById("a").value=$results[0].E2E_busProcType$;
          alert(document.getElementById("a").value);
          }

         < /script>
< input type="text" id="a">< /input>
< input type="button" onclick="call()" value="clickme">< /input>
< /param>



        < /module>

when i click the button i want to get the search result in the textbox.
This click is showing the value in text box when i place static text in alert box.

How do i get the search value.Is that possible to get or not.

Hi..
Yeah its Possible in splunk !!!
Use the Following code snippet in your code.

< input type="button" onclick="call($results[0].E2E_busProcType$)" value="clickme">< /input>

and inside the javascript function do the following changes..

function call(var arg)
{
document.getElementById("a").value=arg;
alert(document.getElementById("a").value);
}

Now you can the see value displayed in the alert box.

Please let me talk you out of this. It's not a good idea. What are you actually trying to do? If you want a text input there's the TextField module, if you want a button there's the Button module. If you want to attach custom JS to the page there's the CustomBehavior module. Anything here that works is going to work only with many asterisks and pitfalls.
