TextField();

hey does anyone know any links to tutorials or anything to help me create textfeilds with javascript. i think the TextField();
function is what i need but cnt find much on it.

here is a site that has done it with ajax

Simplest way to do that is this:

var myTextField = document.createElement('input');
myTextField.type = 'text';

Code (markup):

This simply creates the text field. You can add any properties you like, the same as you can add when using the <input> tag. Here are some examples:

myTextField.id = 'myTextField';
myTextField.name = 'myTextField';
myTextField.style.width = '100px';
etc, etc...

Code (markup):

Then, you need to append the text field to your page. Here's how you can append it to the body of your page:

document.body.appendChild(myTextField);

Code (markup):

You can also use ajax to do that, there are also other ways of creating the field, but i suggest you get familiar with this method first.

that made perfect sense
