Assalam u Alaikum,
I'm developing an application using PHP, MySQL, JavaScript and HTML. I have a sort of "static" table for users' designations so I am populating this field in user insertion form... from the database (not hard-coded in the script) so that whatever designations are there in the database must be visible in the list on the fly.

Now what I want is that if the user doesn't see her/his designation on the list, s/he should "type" it in the list box and that value should be captured for insertion in designation table. Is it possible to do this somehow *using above-mentioned* technologies? (You know, in HTML list boxes are read-only and cannot be editted)...

Take care & Allah Hafiz
