[knigh7]

how do i write this in a stand alone javascript

<input type="button" name="sendToFlash" id="sendToFlash" value="Send Text To Flash" onclick="getElementById('flash').sendTextFromHtml(htmlText.value + htmlText.value); document.getElementById('htmlText').value = ''" />
</form>

You should better call a function (placed in an embedded JavaScript code, usually in the HEAD - or an external JS file) and pass the arguments there. JavaScript inline code is not recommended.
