}
</script>
<body>

Enter number <input type="text" id="input1" value="">
<input type="submit" onClick="runMe">

Jump to PostYou should be using one "=" to set a variable. Using double "==" is for comparison, like using in an IF statement to check if x == this.
var x = document.getElementById('input1').value;Not really sure what you're doing with
document.write(x);either.
