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.

Cheers!

Ryan:

Your terminology is clear enough and you're on the right path, but 
it's not simple.

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.

Cheers,

tedd
