Hi,
Sorry for the easy question, but does anyone have an example of this process :-

(1) simple HTML where I can enter a value in an input box
(2) The HTML calls some VBScript and the VBScript displays the value in a message box.
(3) The VBScript then displays another input box for me to enter a value in a NEW variable (defined in the VBScript).
(4) The VBScript ends and my HTML displays the NEW value just entered in VBScript


I'm hoping that this can be done in very few lines and shows me how to pass values between code types.

I'm on vacation and don't have access to a PC, so for now, by best advice is to start here (http://w3schools.com/vbscript/default.asp). Since VBScript is IE only, I cannot write much with my Mac.
