Passing a Javascript Variable

Question

Can someone help me with my project? How can I call textbox details in javascript?

function AddPushpin()
{
    var shape = new VEShape(VEShapeType.Pushpin, map.GetCenter());
    shape.SetTitle(**//it should be coming from a textfield//**);
    shape.SetDescription('This is shape number '+pinid);
    pinid++;
    map.AddShape(shape);
}

Answer 1

document.getElementById ('myTextElementsId'). Value

Answer 2

<textfield id="shapeTitle"></textfield>

---- // -----

document.getElementById('shapeTitle').value

where 'shapeTitle' must match the identifier of the element that needs a value.
