insert a dialog box into an iweb page

I want to insert a dialog box into a page, and the input by the user would cause navigation to another page within the site. I'm willing to learn some applescript to do this.

Thanks.

What should the user put into the dialog to go to another page?

Isn't it easer to just add links to the page.

Anyway, does this comes close?

If not, best is to analyze in microscopic detail what exactly you want to accomplish.

Sadly your links are blocked as I am work on a school computer. I want to make an extremely simple game that teachers could make themselves out of pages of their iweb website, in which one page poses a question and if answered correctly (in the dialog box), then takes the user to the next question page; if not, it opens a message (box) stating their answer is incorrect (or navigates to a page or an anchor on the same page that states that--but then I wouldnt want them to have to navigate back to the original question...)

You would use JavaScript to do that.

It's not something that you make between sipping coffee.
