Hey Parag,

this is how I add an item to a combo box dynamically, you can trigger this with a button or with an OnBlur or OnChange or whatever but basically this is what you need:

<SCRIPT Language=&quot;JavaScript&quot;>
<!--
function updateselectbox(form)
{
(form.SelectBoxName.length)++;
form.SelectBoxName.options[form.SelectBoxName.length - 1].text = &quot;New Item Text&quot;;
form.SelectBoxName.options[form.SelectBoxName.length - 1].value = &quot;New Item Value&quot;;

}
//-->
</script>

Then trigger that function from your form and you're set. Let me know if you have any trouble implementing it.

have fun...
