Hello,

I'm very new to the Prototype Window Class and Prototype in general, so
forgive the stupid question:

I would like to create a popup window similar to the login sample provided
on the prototype-window.xilinus.com/ site.  I would like the form to be able
to post data to the server and also receive validation error messages back
from the processing page.  How would I go about posting a form in this popup
to a server side script and receiving any information back from the script?
I'm able to get the login sample working fine, but I'm lost as to how to
submit a form and also how to return error messages if validation of the
form fails.

Here's a sample of my code:

The javascript:
-------------------
function addLink(){
 Dialog.confirm($('addLink').innerHTML, {windowParameters:
{className:"alphacube", width:400},
          okLabel: "Add Link",
          cancelLabel: "Cancel",
          ok:function(win){
            $('addLink_error_msg').innerHTML='Error adding link.';
            $('addLink_error_msg').show();
            Windows.focusedWindow.updateHeight();
            return false;}});
}

And the form:
-------------------
<div id="addLink" style="display:none">
<form name="myForm" action="addlink.cfm">
<p><span id='addLink_error_msg' class="addLink_error"
style="display:none">&nbsp;</span></p>
<div style="clear:both"></div>
<p><span class="addLink_label">URL</span> <span
class="addLink_input"><input type="text" name="url"/></span></p>
<div style="clear:both"></div>
<p><span class="addLink_label">Title</span> <span
class="addLink_input"><input type="text" name="title"/></span></p>
<div style="clear:both"></div>
</form>
</div>

I appreciate any help that anyone can offer.

Regards,

westy
