You mean add new options to a <select> list? Yeah, you can do that with javascript. Somethin like the code below. Just remember, javascript is cAsE sEnSiTivE ;)

<select id="yourSelectList" ....>
    <option value="1">grapes</option>
    <option value="2">pears</option>
</select>
<script type="text/javascript">
    var list = document.getElementById('yourSelectList');
    list.options[list.length] = new Option('strawberries', '3');
    ...
</script>
