Answer 1

Maybe the problem is the name of function, the code of @Ashwani works well with me, in short... you have to replace the name of function, @Ashwani has setted the name in "deleteChar()", you have to set the name in "text()" and replace your text() function.

As @Abdel said, his code reset the text and doesn't work for delete a single character, use the function of @Ashwani but change the name of the function.

Bye.

Answer 2

You can use below function on click of delete button.

function deleteChar(){
var text = document.getElementById("my")
.innerHTML.toString();
document.getElementById("my")
.innerHTML = text.slice(0, text.length-1);
}

Answer 3

If you want character by character deletion of the present text in the text area, then this is the code and works fine.

If your requirement is something else, then you can explain further.

Answer 4

Answer 5

Yeah , when I used @Ashwani code I changed the function name to text() as @Maz said

I have edited the last function and the last button
It works.
but the above code from @Askhwani is the best
because mine resets everything and that's not cool

document.getElementById("my").innerHTML = '';
}
<button onclick="text()">Delete</button>
