This javascript code to concatenate isn't working. I tried an alert before closure of script tag, it's displayed but the code below that I want to display the result in third or different text field.
HTML:
<input type="text" id="field"><br>
<input type="text" id="str2"><br>
<input type="text" id="str3"><br>
<button onclick="concate()">Concatenate</button>
JavaScript:
var s=document.getElementById("field").value;
var t=document.getElementById("str2").value;
var st=document.getElementById("str3").value;
function concate()
{
st=s+t;
document.getElementById("str3").value.innerHTML=st;
console.log(st);
document.write(st);
}

function concate() {
var s=document.getElementById("field").value;
var t=document.getElementById("str2").value;
var st=document.getElementById("str3").value;
// this is a standard way to concatenate string in javascript
var result = s+t;
document.getElementById("str3").value=result;
}
<input type="text" id="field"><br>
<input type="text" id="str2"><br>
<input type="text" id="str3" readonly><br>
<button onclick="concate()">Concatenate</button>

There's no function .value.innerHTML
should be :
document.getElementById("str3").value = st;
Also you should get the fields value inside function and close your function definition using }
, check example bellow.
Hope this helps.
function concate()
{
var s=document.getElementById("field").value;
var t=document.getElementById("str2").value;
document.getElementById("str3").value=s+t;
}
<input type="text" id="field"><br>
<input type="text" id="str2"><br>
<input type="text" id="str3"><br>
<button onclick="concate()">Concatenate</button>
