To be accurate: You doesn't "add buttons to js", but exactly you add buttons to html... This is why you quickly need to know at least basics of html for use it as a GUI. Alternatively to @coding girl solution, you can 'write' directly html source code in document and/or in a particular html element to update its html text content: document.write('<button onclick="alert('did something');">Do Something</button>'); var e = document.getElement.getById('someId'); e.innerHTML = '<button onclick="alert('did something');">Do Something</button>'; ... second method is preferable, as first could overwrite the actual page source content, and the property 'innerHTML' is as well readable as writable ;)
