html5 canvas kinetic textbox

Question

I was wondering if there is a way for me to open up a textbox for users to type in on an onclick event? How would i go about making this? I'm thinking now that there may be a way for me to grab what the user types on a canvas and use the methods i've read about to output the text. Is this a possibility? But how would i allow the user to type on the canvas in the first place?

I've done a lot of reading and all the examples i could find were about simply outputting text onto the canvas rather than creating a textbox.

Any ideas?
