Okay, I will take a look, but I am some what determined.
So I can do this to replace my first thing:
$('#groups').append(
'trtd class=groupselectLoading.../td' +
'td class=roleselectLoading.../td' +
'td class=requestbuttoninput type=button
value=Request onClick=makeRequest( this.form ); //td' +
'td class=cancelbuttoninput type=button
value=Cancel onClick= //td' +
'td class=nothingnbsp;/td/tr',
);
That seems to create the row correctly, but I also want to do a little
ajaxy thing and replace the two column, groups and roles with a drop
down box. Append doesn't seem to have a call back when complete. That
would be big.
Also, I guess the way that the code is executed, it does not seem to
follow anything orderly besides chaining.
So perhaps the question is how do I wait until the objects are created
then populate them with by drop down boxes?
By the way, thanks for the answers.
cheers

This doesn't directly address your question, but for rendering out HTML,
you might want to consider trimpath templates:

I use them for all kinds of HTML rendering. Then you can just create
regular HTML instead of cobbling together DOM nodes. I usually merge my
data into the template and then bind event handlers to the generated DOM
nodes via jquery. It's worked nicely for a lot of projects.
Anyway, a thought. I didn't carefully look at all the code below, but if
the node creation for your tr is correct, you can append the row to a
tbody, then append the tbody to a table and append the table to the
form, I think.

Anyone have an idea how one might add a row to a table and have the
form elements in each column? Something like this:
var newRow = document.createElement( 'tr' );
var groupCell = document.createElement( 'td' );
var roleCell= document.createElement( 'td' );
var requestCell = document.createElement( 'td' );
var cancelCell = document.createElement( 'td' );
var groupSelect = document.createElement( select );
groupSelect.setAttribute(id, 'group');
var roleSelect = document.createElement( select );
roleSelect.setAttribute(id, 'role' );
// Not sure about this, but it seems that you have to put
the field
// into the form then place it on the screen
groupCell.appendChild( groupSelect );
roleCell.appendChild( roleSelect );
var requestButton = document.createElement( Input );
requestButton.setAttribute( 'type', 'Button' );
requestButton.setAttribute( 'value', 'Request' );
requestButton.setAttribute( 'onClick','makeRequest( this.form );');
requestCell.appendChild( requestButton );
var cancelButton = document.createElement( Input );
cancelButton.setAttribute( 'type', 'Button' );
cancelButton.setAttribute( 'value', 'Cancel' );
cancelButton.setAttribute( 'onClick','cancelRequest( this.form );');
cancelCell.appendChild( cancelButton );
newRow.appendChild( groupCell );
newRow.appendChild( roleCell );
newRow.appendChild( requestCell );
newRow.appendChild( cancelCell );
$('#groups').append( newRow ); // a little jquery action
Okay this looks good, but it is not associated with the form in the
DOM.?
thanks
