  Hi Pachat,
  
  You are right, _prompt and _confirm are not exposed as APIs by Sahi right now.
  
  Please have a look at this http://sahi.co.in/forums/viewtopic.php?id=2038 to see how _prompt can be used.
  
  _confirm is similar.

  narayan,
  
  It works !
  
  I gave a little enhancement, allowing to custumize the message

  <browser>
  function promptForUserInput(message){
      _sahi_temp_promptValue = _sahi._prompt(message);
  }
  </browser>
  
  function getUserInput($message){
      var $value = null;
      _call(promptForUserInput($message));
      _set($value, _sahi_temp_promptValue);
      return $value;
  }
  
  
  // Get the user input in your script
  var $userInput = getUserInput('Enter a name');
  _alert($userInput);
  

  
  Thank you for your support

  In fact, for some reasons, it looks like not to be quite similar.
  The following code does not work

  <browser>
  function confirmForUserInput(message){
      _sahi_temp_confirmValue = _sahi._confirm(message);
  }
  </browser>
  
  function confirm($message){
      var $value = null;
      _call(confirmForUserInput($message));
     //Firebug says :  _sahi_temp_confirmValue is not defined
      _set($value, _sahi_temp_confirmValue);
  
      return $value;
  }
  
  
  // Get the user input in your script
  var $userInput = confirm('Are you sure ?');
  _alert($userInput);
  

  What am I doing wrong ?

  Hi Pachat,
  
  _confirm function was not defined on Sahi. Use the code below:

  <browser>
  function confirmForUserInput(message){
      _sahi_temp_confirmValue = _sahi._confirm(message);
  }
  Sahi.prototype._confirm = function (s) {
      return this.callFunction(this.real_confirm, window, s);
  };
  </browser>
  
  function getConfirmResult($message){
      var $value = null;
      _call(confirmForUserInput($message));
     //Firebug says :  _sahi_temp_confirmValue is not defined
      _set($value, _sahi_temp_confirmValue);
  
      return $value;
  }
  
  
  // Get the user input in your script
  var $userInput = getConfirmResult('Are you sure ?');
  _alert($userInput);
  

  
  Note that I am using getConfirmResult instead of confirm. If not, any javascript code calling confirm() will invoke this function, instead of Sahi's mock confirm function.
