Append text to input field

I need to append some text to an input field...

From stackoverflow

• $('#input-field-id').val($('#input-field-id').val() + 'more text');
  

  Kevin Brown : Thanks a bunch!

• You are probably looking for val()

• If you are planning to use appending more then once, you might want to write a function:

  //Append text to input element
  function jQ_append(id_of_input, text){
      $(id_of_input).val($(id_of_input).val() + text);
  }
  

  After you can just call it:

  jQ_append('my_input_id', 'add this text');
