<script type="text/javascript">

function tag_url() {

var enterURL = prompt("Enter URL", "http://");

}

</script>

<input type="button" value="URL" onClick="tag_url()">

</ br></ br>

<textarea id="text" rows="10" cols="60">

</textarea>

and now i wanna code that the user input from java prompt will be inserted into a textfield.

Thanx for your help

simple way would just be

<script type="text/javascript">

function tag_url() {

var enterURL = prompt("Enter URL", "http://");

document.getElementById('text').value += enterURL;

}

</script>

If you're looking for how to make bbcode prompts, there are dozens of tutorials on how to do that. You should use the tutorial search/google if that's what you want.

The wrapping of a string in another string is also basic javascript. If you managed to write what you did above, you should be able to do simple string modifications also.

But just because i'm nice, javascript uses the '+' operator for string concatenation.
