[Javascript] Appending an input to a form in Internet Explorer

[German Sibay]

It does not work =(
Same error.
I´ve also tried "input" instead of "INPUT"
I´m all ears (or eyes)

German,

Have tried this way;

function addInputField (form, fieldType, fieldName, fieldValue) {

var input = document.createElement("INPUT");

form.appendChild(input);

input.setAttribute('type', fieldType);

input.setAttribute('name', fieldName);

input.setAttribute('value', fieldValue);

}

This gives it the same order as your function output.

Just a thought ....

Robert
