It's very simple. Take a div and set it's display property to none, then write a javascript function which will set the display property of div to block, then call the javascript function on button click.

HTML

<div id="dropdown" style="display:none">
 <input type="text" width="100" height="30" />
</div>

Javascript function:-

JavaScript

function ShowDiv()
{
  document.getElementById("dropdown").style.display="block";
}

Now call this JavaScript function on button click.
that's it!

Good luck.

Thanks. But there's one other problem : There are combo boxes below the Div dropdown, when it becomes visible (the DIV), they go down to give it space. I want it to cover them and stop them from going down? Like bringing it to front. What do I do?
