Ok so i have a script that works fine but it sucks to have to edit the url from notepad. So i was working on putting a popup promt box in there to make it easier but for some reason the box isnt openingthis is the original

<html>  <head>    <script type="text/javascript">    var frame_url = "http://api.msappspace.com/proxy/relay.proxy?opensocial_authtype=SIGNED&opensocial_token=F68Nd0zvr5JhGuL3ajJAYPYTpcEAWrQ0hKETAa3gq7yKddBLXFYqB99mz3USuqV1D69AyNmTVUA9rrsP+WyoJjC02h4hJ8OQ6BlKHZop3ek=&opensocial_url=http%3A//mob-dynamic-lb5.mobsters08.com/mob/increase_attribute%3Fuser_id%3D402811394%26attribute%3Ddefense_strength%26session_id%3D1f7746117fe8fb0ab889931208fcb1750a6e99b2%26session_key%3D3bbacc6b42c315e8b5bc3c11a53fc2d97350046c";    function refresh_frame(frame_id, theurl)    {      var fr = document.getElementById(frame_id);      var now = new Date();      now = now.valueOf();      fr.src = theurl + "&now=" + now;    }        setInterval('refresh_frame("Fight", frame_url);', 400);   </script>  </head>  <body>    <IFRAME id="Fight" width=800 height=200 marginwidth=0 marginheight=0 frameborder=0 scrolling=auto></IFRAME>    <script type="text/javascript">    document.getElementById("Fight").src = frame_url;    </script>  </body></html>

then this one is where i tried to replace the frame_url link with a prompt box to determine it

<html>  <head><script type="text/javascript">function disp_prompt(){var frame_url = prompt("Please enter your name","Harry Potter");if (name!=null && name!="")}</script>    <script type="text/javascript">    var frame_url = "";    function refresh_frame(frame_id, theurl)    {      var fr = document.getElementById(frame_id);      var now = new Date();      now = now.valueOf();      fr.src = theurl + "&now=" + now;    }        setInterval('refresh_frame("Fight", frame_url);', 400);   </script>  </head>  <body>	<input type="button" onclick="disp_prompt()" value="Display a prompt box" />    <IFRAME id="Fight" width=800 height=200 marginwidth=0 marginheight=0 frameborder=0 scrolling=auto></IFRAME>    <script type="text/javascript">    document.getElementById("Fight").src = frame_url;    </script>  </body></html>

any help is greatly appeciated

There were so many problems with your original that just I rewrote everything. To explain the changes would be a basic course in javascript and HTML. With luck, you can study what I did and learn something. If you want to style your iframe, you should add a stylesheet and some CSS. Unless your fight page downloads very fast, you might reconsider that interval. 400 milliseconds isn't much time.FWIW, you weren't getting a prompt because you had an error in disp_prompt(). Your if statement was incomplete.

<html>	<head>		<script type="text/javascript">			function refresh_frame(frame_id, theurl) {				var fr = document.getElementById(frame_id);				var now = new Date();				now = now.valueOf();				fr.src = "http://" + theurl + "?now=" + now;			}			var frame_url = "";			var interval;			function disp_prompt() {				frame_url = prompt("Please enter a URL: http://", frame_url);				if (frame_url != ""){					interval = setInterval('refresh_frame("Fight", frame_url);', 400);				} else {					clearInterval (interval);				}			}			function init () {				document.getElementById("prompt_button").onclick = disp_prompt;			}			window.onload = init;		</script>	</head>	<body>		<input type="button" value="Get URL" id="prompt_button">		<iframe id="Fight"></iframe>	</body></html>
