My bad. Here's what I think he's after:
This puts the long text values into the input box based on the selected option. And
yes, "onclick" was the wrong one to use. Corrected here:
<head>
<title>test</title>
<script language="javascript">
var text_values = new Array();
text_values[0] = "long text for tee";
text_values[1] = "longer text for tie";
text_values[2] = "even longer text text for toe";
function update(index) {
document.my_form.foo.value=text_values[index];
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form name="my_form" action="test.html">
<input type="text" name="foo" value="text for one">
<select name="bar" onchange="update(document.my_form.bar.selectedIndex)">
<option value="tee" selected="selected">tee</option>
<option value="tie">tie</option>
<option value="toe">toe</option>
</select>
</form>
</body>
