You will have to provide a little more information, Dean. This makes no sense to me. Are you talking about a form? Tell us a little bit more, please and we'll do our best to help.

sry about that its kinda hard to explain. well im making a kind of novelty website, based on a TV show. I had the idea to do this about a week ago and i finnaly decided to try and do it. what i basically am trying to do is creat a little window (box) on the website where, located beneath it are number buttons that you press which type in a certain code every 108 minutes (if u dont watch the show Lost it doesnt make much sense lol) and i cant quite figure out how to make the buttons work right so people can type in the code.

hope this helps Girlonthehill

Hmmmm. This is interesting. I am not sure if I fully understand but I think, that you need an input field - you would have to use a form input field for this and may need a special php script to handle the operation. Perhaps you could use the advanced form button which has an 'on-click' option. If you're looking at having a virtual number pad to input from then perhaps an image map with hotspots? I'm really just playing with ideas here, Dean, as I'm not sure exactly what you're afer. Sort of giving you areas to explore.

I'm sorry if I haven't helped and hopefully someone else may be along soon who can give you some better advice. Lol.

Good luck.
