document.write('<b><font size="5" face="Comic Sans MS">');
if (hrs <= 12) document.write('Good Morning, ');
else if (hrs <= 18) document.write('Good Afternoon, ');
else document.write('Good Evening, ');
document.write('<font color="darkred">' + name + '</font> !</font></b>');
document.forms[0].user_name.value = name;

Just use a hidden field and change the value dynamically to the value of the prompt.

Hope that helps!

Happy coding! :)
