How can you enter an answer in a text box? I’m wondering because I’m making a math game for a site and it would be confusing clicking buttons to add to your answer. An example would be (so it’s clearer):  
1000  
+1000

* * *

2000

1000+1000 is the problem and your answer (2000) is typed in a box. Can anyone help?
