Can I create a form on the fly?

[kj]

Is it possible to create a form on the fly, by creating the form
and its elements, and adding them to the document somehow?

Thanks!

Depending on the capabilities of the browser, yes. Those supporting advanced
DOM methods will understand this:

{
var d=document;
var f=d.createEleme nt('form');
var i=d.createEleme nt('input');
var i2=i.cloneNode( false);
var br=d.createElem ent('br');
f.action='http://www.google.com/search';
f.method='get';
f.name='f';
i.type='text';
i.name='q';
i.value='';
i2.type='submit ';
i2.value=' Search ';
f.appendChild(i );
f.appendChild(b r);
f.appendChild(i 2);
d.body.insertBe fore(f,d.body.f irstChild);
}
