Hey Tedd, Thanks for replying. The problem is, I know how to do this via a drop down select box and a text box... I want to do this via a javascript prompt, which is where I am getting stumped.

The way it works is that you have a javascript ajax file, which is loaded by your main page and creates a request object. When the user clicks something, it receives a send request, and handles the response, which in turn updates the page via the DOM without a refresh. Clear? Keep looking at ajax.
