To use this Javascript for your own, copy the contents of the textbox below, and paste them into Notepad. Then, save the contents as a .htm or .html file. The Javascript is now yours! Just ensure you give me proper credit for creating it.

Javascript Source Code

var message;
var backmessage;

function backwards(textObj) //this function reverses the String textObj.value
{
	message = textObj.value; //take value of the text field
	backmessage = ""; //initialize the backwards message to be empty

for (i = message.length-1; i >= 0; i -= 1) //for each character in the message, starting at the end
		backmessage += message.charAt(i); //place at the end of the backwards message

textObj.value = backmessage; //set text field to backwards message

}
// -->
</script>

<form name="backform" onsubmit="backwards(userText); return false;" action="">
Enter your message here:<br />
<input type="text" size="50" name="userText" />
<br />
<input type="submit" value="Reverse my message." />
</form>
