When you say popup a form, do you mean a new window?

 

<script>

//open a new window

Function openWin(windowURL, windowName, windowFeatures){

            Return window.open(windowURL, windowName, windowFeatures);

}

</script>

 

 

To call function…

 

<button newWindow = openWin(‘http://somepageurl.com’,’Name’,’width=420,height=650,toolbar=0,location=0,directories=0,status=0,menubar=0,scrollbars=1,resizeable=1’); newWindow.focus();”>open window</button>

 

The above button will open a new browser window and turn off toolbar, location, directories, status, and menubar.  Kinda like a modal window.  Provide the URL to your form for the user to enter data.

 

Then to get the value in an alert do something like this:

 

<script>

Function funGetValue(what){

            alert(what);

}

</script>

 

<form>

            <input type=”textbox” name=”formElement” funGetValue(this.value);”>

</form>

 

This should work, but may need some tweaking.  At any rate, it’s something to go on.

 

 

Thanks

Hi All,

Can someone provide me with the _javascript_ code that does the following; I want to pop up a form to enter a value and output it using alert();.  Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!
