I have a feeling that I'm missing the point of what you're trying to do here. If you want to get the input from a user on a page instead of the prompt, just use a form:

<pre>
<form>
Please enter a bulletin number: <input type="text" name="bulletin">
<input type="button" onClick="location.href=this.form.bulletin.value + '.htm';" value="Go!">
</form>
</pre>

Of course, validation checking should be added to make sure the value in the text box makes sense.
