How to create Check Box and Select Tag

[Raghuram Banda]

Hi there,

I'm new programmer in JavaScript. Can any one help in creating a
checkbox (by default selected) from JavaScript and creating Drop down
box (<select> ... </select>) from Javascript.

Thanks In Advance

var cb = document.create Element("input" ); // create input node
cb.type = "checkbox"; // set type
cb.name = "checkboxNa me"; // set name if necessary
cb.checked = cb.defaultCheck ed = true; // make it checked now and by default

formRef.appendC hild(cb); // add it to some form

var se = document.create Element("select ");
cb.name = "selectName ";
se.options[0] = new Option("selecti on 1","value 1");
se.options[1] = new Option("selecti on 2","value 2");
se.options[2] = new Option("selecti on 3","value 3");
se.options[3] = new Option("selecti on 4","value 4");

formRef.appendC hild(se);

Hope this helps.
