First, try fixing line 48, the first line of

Code:

function makeNewWindow()

...

Code:

    newWindow=window.open(&quot;&quot;,&quot;&quot;,status,height=200,width=300&quot;)

You see that? No starting quote for

Code:

&quot;status,height=200,width=300&quot;

. Keep in mind that when there's an unterminated string constant such as the one above, no functions after it are even considered, because there was an error on the page before they were declared.

As you said, first you want to get the prompt working. Fixing the problem mentioned above will put your prompt-launching function into existance and you will get a nice prompt popping up when you click the button.

Good luck on your project
