What is it you're trying to do by doing this? Are you trying to add text
fields on demand on the client side with a button onclick event? Or just
trying to produce elements dynamically using javascript? ]

elem.attribute.type="text"; 

is more likely to read something like

documnent.getAttribute("type", "text");

Again this depends one what you're trying to do.
