About Me:
I am a 26 year old female SharePoint Enthusiast. I work for B&R Business Solutions from my home in Olathe, KS. I have been working with SharePoint since I attended the Portal University in 2005. I hold a BA in Computer Science from the University of Missouri - Kansas City. I love playing Rockband, organizing user group meetings, working with MOSS, attending Code Camps as a speaker, and having bizarre conversations about geek things with cool people. If you have any comments or questions fill out the contact form and I will try my best to help.

Creating Dynamic Controls with Javascript



I was working on a search hack and needed the session state from ASP .Net controls and the ids from html controls using this hack: http://www.tqcblog.com/archive/2007/10/26/creating-a-custom-advanced-search-box-in-moss-2007.aspx.  So I came up with a creative solution.  I would add the html controls in the background.  Here is some code if you would like to add your own hidden html controls or just create some for fun:

var currentElement = document.createElement("input");
currentElement.setAttribute("type", "hidden");
currentElement.setAttribute("name", "YourName");
currentElement.setAttribute("id", "YourID");
currentElement.setAttribute("value", "YourValue");
document.getElementById("DivName").appendChild(currentElement);

You are going to want to create a div or a span to add your elements or you can do document.body.appendChild.  SharePoint for some reason did not like that statement, so I created a div before the button to add the elements.  You do not need to add a hidden element.  You can add a checkbox, but remember to add an element.display = "none"; or it will display the item.  If you have any comments or questions send them my way.  Hope you all have a good week!
