Copying text from the page and placing it in a input field when a button is clicked with PHP – WordPress

I’m looking to copy the text from a <p> element with the ID of code and put it in an input field with the data-field-id of 6197c68b4c806 when a button is clicked.

How could I do this? I would like the code to be inline if that is possible.

    First you need to access the element you want to copy the text from with:

    `let text = document.querySelector('css selector').text` or .textContent.

    This will save the text existing in the element.
    Then you select the input, using the same technique and then do:
    .value = text.
    Also add an event listener to the button you want to click to trigger this:

    document.querySelector('btn.submit').addEventListener(() => {
let text = document.querySelector('css selector').text;
document.querySelector('input#x').value = text
})

    Should do the trick.

           document.queryselector('#btn').addEventListener(()=>
var q_t = document.queryselector('#input').text;
document.queryselector('#output').text(q_t);
    )}

    You have to follow this above code, hopefully you can solve this
