How can I take an id of element with textbox and how to insert id to my $("") place?

I have an input, button and I have an p. I want to take id of p from my textbox and when I click the button, the text of p will change. I can take id from my textbox with val() method, but how to insert it to $("what I must write")?

We get id from p and manipulate it in jquery code. For instance: css. But u can explore it for other purposes. If I understood you correctly... <p id="textarea"></p> $("p#textarea").css({"color": "red", "font-size": "200%"});

So you want to use the id in the textbox? I don't know jQuery, but this JavaScript example should help: var textbox = document.getElementById("myTextbox"); var other = document.getElementById(textbox.value);
