[Javascript] JavaScript Prompt Box

[Chris T]

If you don't want to go the route of a DIV, you can still use a prompt box.
Just make sure when you get your value that you parseInt it to make sure
it's numeric. Also, make sure it's not null. I think that's the value
returned if a user hits Escape or Cancel.

But you'll use the onClick event to determine the state of the checkbox.

Yes. Use the onclick option to trigger the action, then use scripting to
display the option box.

something like onclick="show_options_box()"

Put the option box in a DIV statement and hide it. The javascript function
can then set the css option on the div tag to visible.

Thanks for your reply. Here's what I want to do. I want a user to click on
a checkbox for a particular option, say user has there options, Windows NT,
Windows 2000 or Windows XP operating systems. User selects checkbox next to
NT and javascript prompt box appears asking how may NT operating systems
are needed. Is this possible?
Mark.
