IE Checkboxes

How can I create a checkbox dynamically in IE by manipulating the DOM?

Setting inputDomElement.type='checkbox' doesn't work. IE says it can't
'get' the member.

Are you assigning the value before you add the element to the document,
and are you only assigning a value once?

The element has been added to the document and then... maybe that's it?

Ah ha! So set the type before inserting it!

Thanks,
