prompting 2 values

[uoL]

Hello,

I'd like to know how to prompt two values with prompt(); function.
I need to get things like 'pass' and 'user, 'article' and 'value', etc
... in a document and I dont want to make a whole html in a pop up to
do it ..

Thanks !

Hi,

Prompt just gives 1 inputfield. Period.
So you'll have to make 2 prompts, giving the values in sequence.
Or let the user use some character as a seperator, eg:
article;value

You can't. So you'll have to make a whole html page.
Unless you require the user to type in a "somecharacter" delimited
string and then parse it. Like: "user, pass, article, value". Tho this
ain't an elegant solution.

Your ftp-program is not written in JavaScript.

Erwin,

I ment when you enter a ftp site via web browser. the web browser
display some kind of prompt but with two value inputs.

Same answer: Your webbrowser is not written in JavaScript, but C(++).

So the ftp-dialog is not created by JavaScript, but it is created by some
build-in function.

That prompt isn't accessible from JavaScript. Those things ar generated
by the browser when a page requires authentication (http
authentication, for instance).

Thank you all .. but i tell you I think javascript should give
programmers this feature of prompting more than one value .. It seems
is obviously usefull.. but I'm also sure there's a good reason for not
implementing such a thing.
Thanks again !

I'm also sure there's a good reason for not implementing such a thing.
I wouldn't be so sure about that, however I'm sure there aren't good
reasons to implement such things
