I don't know what you call 'textbox' ( <textarea> element or any container like <div> element ? ), but in all cases ( obviously, replacing <textarea> by the element you want ):
<textarea id="myTextbox></textarea>
<input type="button" value="a" onclick="document.getElementById('myTextbox').innerHTML+=this.value;">

For that you will need to download jQuery. Check Sololearn's jQuery course for downloading it or you could switch the programming language to jQuery.
To make a function run when a key is pressed, type this:
$('body').keydown(function() {
//code goes here
})
If you want a specific key to be pressed, type "alert(event.which)" in the area where the code goes. So if you press the key you want to be pressed, press it. It should output a number that is the key that you just pressed. If, for example, you pressed space, and you got 32, replace that code with this:
if (event.which == 32) {
//code that is executed when you press space
}.
So you want A to appear in the textbox. That is pretty easy for me.
document.getElementById('(textarea id)').innerHTML = 'a'
But you download jQuery, so if you want you could write this instead:
$('#(textarea id name)').text('a')
You dont need to thank me.
