<!-- Form to add item -->
<form action="#" style="text-align:center;">
<!-- Type of Element -->
<label for="type">
Add Element Type
</label>
<input type="text" id="type"
placeholder="Like: div, h1, li...."
value="li" />
<br /><br />
<!-- Text/Value for the element --->
<label for="value">

</label>
<input type="text" id="value"
placeholder="Like: Hello GeeksForGeeks"
value="CHILD 2" />
<br /><br />
<!-- Submit the Form -->
<button type="button"
onClick="addItem()">
Add
</button>
</form>
<!-- Parent tag where we add
item as child -->
<ol id="parent">
<li>List Item 1</li>
</ol>
<script>
// Define the addItem() function
// to be called through onclick
function addItem() {
// Get type of element from form
let type = document.
getElementById("type").value;
// Get the text/value for the tag
// from the form
let value = document.
getElementById("value").value;
// createElement() is used for
// creating a new element
type
= document.createElement(type);
// Use value as textnode in this example
type.appendChild(
document.createTextNode(value));
// Append as child to the parent
// tag i.e. ol
document.getElementById(
"parent").appendChild(type);
}
</script>
