Beth, You can add anything to the page dynamically by constructing the Html tag and putting it in the appropriate place. One common technique is to use place holders - a static text field or a hidden field, and in the onBeforeHtmlOutput of this element, override the Html to whatever you want to put. However, when you add Form elements dynamically, you have to be careful about their processing. Instead of getDisplayFieldValue(), you will have to use getWebVar(), since ND is not aware of the existence of these Form elements. In the case of Submit buttons, what goes to the server is <name>=<value> of the button that was clicked. The NVPs of other buttons don't get submitted. So you will need to iteratively do getWebVar() to find which button was clicked, and act accordingly. When you create buttons thru Studio, all these are taken care of by ND.
