  $('#box > input').hide();
  inputCount++;
  input = $('<input>')
    .attr({
      'type': 'text',
      'placeholder': 'Entry_' + inputCount,
      'data-id': inputCount
    })
    .appendTo($('#box'));
}

functioneditPreviousEntry() {
  var cId = $('#box > input:visible').data('id');

  if (cId - 1 !== 0) {
    $('#box > input').hide();
    $('#box > input:nth-child(' + (cId - 1) + ')').show();
  }
  $('#box > input:nth-child(' + inputCount + ')').hide();
}

functioneditNextEntry() {
    var cId = $('#box > input:visible').data('id');

    if (cId + 1 <= inputCount) {
        $('#box > input').hide();
        $('#box > input:nth-child(' + (cId + 1) + ')').show();
    }
}

input {
  display: block;
  margin-bottom: 5px;
}
