  $('#msg').val(msg+"hello");
}
function add2(){
  var msg=$('#msg').val();
  $('#msg').val(msg+"world");

I don't understand your question you can't insert the text at the cursor position as there will be no cursor in the textfield while you are clicking a button. – Pheonix2105 Jun 13 '18 at 01:42
