Reply To: Logging randomly generated IDs for MTurkers

Hi Jun,

What version of PennController are you using? Also, what does your HTML file look like?

Using PennController 2.0 and this HTML code, things work just fine for me:

<script>
    function newCode() {
        const randomCode = [...Array(8)].map(()=>Math.round(Math.random()*10)).join('');
        document.querySelector("#code").value = randomCode;
        document.querySelector("#codeDisplay").innerText = randomCode;
    }
</script>

<button onclick="newCode()">Generate code</button>

<input id='code' type='text' name='code' style='display:none;' class='obligatory' />

<p>Your code is <span id='codeDisplay'></span></p>
