I just tried implementing the code, but am running into a bit of a problem. That problem being that I want a default input field to be there, but then the drop down menu will give the user the ability to change it. Is there some way to replace the other input field when I run this script?

Sure, just create a div using Javascript, like I do the input above. Then create a default input and append it to the div. When the user selects a new input type, empty the div, and append a new inpout of the appropriate type to it. I like to abbreiavte the function to clear a div (or other element) as follows: function rac(obj) { while(obj.hasChildNodes()) obj.removeChild(obj.firstChild); }
