GET method and dynamically added input

[sangx001]

Hi everyone,

So I've got a form that I want to submit using the GET method. In the form you can dynamically add <input type=text/> fields to the form via javascript. The problem is that to new input fields do not get submitted and are lost when you submit.

I've done some research and figured out that this is because javascript doesn't alter the source code for things added after the page is closed. I was wondering if there is an easy way to get around this?

Thanks

if you defined the javaScript input fields as <input type=text/> (for valid xhtml you must add " around text) the fields would fail to submit even if they were hardcoded to the source. at least assign a name, so that your (server) script can put a finger on it.

Yeah, I was just using that as an example of the tag that I am add dynamically. All controls have name or id attributes and have quotes around them. The problem is that when you add a control with client side code it is not submitting with the form.

Also FYI , I am creating controls with document.createElement and adding them programmacticly to the DOM for most of my controls. Some I add by just appending innerHTML of a table cell. Would this make a difference? I'll try that out but any other insight into this problem would be helpful.
