How do I input the value in input field using JavaScript?

I m trying to add some text to the input search field using javascript

I tried below code:

document.getElementsByClassName('contacts_modal_search_field')[0].innerHTML = \"test\

and many others, but unsuccessful.

this is the code :

<div class="contacts_modal_search">
  <input class="form-control contacts_modal_search_field no_outline ng-pristine ng-valid ng-empty ng-touched" my-focused="" type="search" placeholder="Search" ng-model="search.query" autocomplete="off" style="">
  <a class="im_dialogs_search_clear tg_search_clear ng-hide" ng-click="search.query = ''" ng-show="search.query.length" style="">
    <i class="icon icon-search-clear"></i>
  </a>
</div>

Use document.getElementById("id").value = "yourvalue" or document.getElementsByClassName("yourclass")[index].value = "yourvalue".

Using id:

Enter text to be the value of the second input field:<br/>
<input type="text" id="text"/>
<br/>
<input type="button" onClick="changeValue()" value="Change Value"/>
<p/>
<input type="text" id="result"/>
<script>
function changeValue(){
 document.getElementById("result").value = document.getElementById("text").value;
}
</script>

Using class:

Enter text to be the value of the second input field:<br/>
    <input type="text" class="text"/>
    <br/>
    <input type="button" onClick="changeValue()" value="Change Value"/>
    <p/>
    <input type="text" class="result"/>
    <script>
    function changeValue(){
     document.getElementsByClassName("result")[0].value = document.getElementsByClassName("text")[0].value;
    }
    </script>

For your code:

Enter text to be the value of the search input field:<br/>
    <input type="text" class="text"/>
    <br/>
    <input type="button" onClick="changeValue()" value="Change Value"/>
    <p/>
    <script>
    function changeValue(){
     document.getElementsByClassName("form-control")[0].value = document.getElementsByClassName("text")[0].value;
    }
    </script>
<hr>
<div class="contacts_modal_search">
  <input class="form-control contacts_modal_search_field no_outline ng-pristine ng-valid ng-empty ng-touched" my-focused="" type="search" placeholder="Search" ng-model="search.query" autocomplete="off" style="">
  <a class="im_dialogs_search_clear tg_search_clear ng-hide" ng-click="search.query = ''" ng-show="search.query.length" style="">
    <i class="icon icon-search-clear"></i>
  </a>
</div>

Change value of input box on window load (using window.onload):

        <script>
        window.onload = function(){
         document.getElementsByClassName("form-control")[0].value = "your value";
        }
        </script>
    <div class="contacts_modal_search">
      <input class="form-control contacts_modal_search_field no_outline ng-pristine ng-valid ng-empty ng-touched" my-focused="" type="search" placeholder="" ng-model="search.query" autocomplete="off" style="">
      <a class="im_dialogs_search_clear tg_search_clear ng-hide" ng-click="search.query = ''" ng-show="search.query.length" style="">
        <i class="icon icon-search-clear"></i>
      </a>
    </div>

you can input in a text box using java script.

  <div class="contacts_modal_search">
   <input class="form-control contacts_modal_search_field no_outline ng-pristine ng-valid ng-empty ng-touched" my-focused="" type="search" placeholder="Search" ng-model="search.query" autocomplete="off" style="" id='contacts_modal_search_field'>
  <a class="im_dialogs_search_clear tg_search_clear ng-hide" ng-click="search.query = ''" ng-show="search.query.length" style="">
    <i class="icon icon-search-clear"></i>
  </a>
</div>
<script>
window.onload=function(){
//by Class name
document.getElementsByClassName('contacts_modal_search_field')[0].value='Something'

//by Id 
document.getElementById('contacts_modal_search_field')[0].value='Something' //if 'contacts_modal_search_field' is your input box ID

//By Tag name
document.getElementsByTagName('input')[0].value='Something'
}
</script>

Maybe like this:

document.getElementsByClassName('contacts_modal_search_field')[0].value = "test";
 <div class="contacts_modal_search">
  <input class="form-control contacts_modal_search_field no_outline ng-pristine ng-valid ng-empty ng-touched" my-focused="" type="search" placeholder="Search" ng-model="search.query" autocomplete="off" style="">
  <a class="im_dialogs_search_clear tg_search_clear ng-hide" ng-click="search.query = ''" ng-show="search.query.length" style="">
    <i class="icon icon-search-clear"></i>
  </a>
</div>
