Increase number in text box on mouse click

Hello

Very new to JavaScript. Fairly simple thing - I would like to increase the value displayed in a box by 1 every time the mouse is clicked on it. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

[h_classen (Hans-Gerd Claßen)]

try{
element.innerHTML = (Number(element.innerText) + 1);
}catch (e){
alert(e);
}

@h_classen

try{ element.innerHTML = (Number(element.innerText) + 1); }catch (e){ alert(e); }

Thank you very much - works a treat
I don't know what the catch(e) and alert(e) part is for but doesn't work without it. Lol
