Hi!

A combo box is a select element. Like all elements this can be created through scripting by using DOM functions.

// Create the element:
var combo_box = document.createElement('select');

// Set some properties:
combo_box.name = 'something';

// Add some choices:
var choice = document.createElement('option');
choice.value = 'option1';
choice.appendChild(document.createTextNode('Option 1');
combo_box.appendChild(choice);
choice = document.createElement('option');
choice.value = 'option2';
choice.appendChild(document.createTextNode('Option 2');
combo_box.appendChild(choice);

/* Add it to the page.
Normally you would get a reference to a form element, and add it to that.
Directly within the body, a select element is meaningless.
*/
document.body.appendChild(combo_box);


Hope that gets you started.
