 * Hi,
    I’m developing a plugin, and one part of the plugin will allow user to insert
   image from the media library using WordPress media-upload. I have been able to
   create one “choose image” field using
 *     ```
       <a class="thickbox" id="3" href="media-upload.php?type=image&TB_iframe=1&width=640&height=500&tab=gallery" title="Set Image">Choose Image</a>
   
       <p id="img1">Image Shown Here</p>
       ```
   
 * and the function
 *     ```
       function send_to_editor(h)
       	{
       		jQuery('#img1').html(h);
       		tb_remove();
       	}
       ```
   
 * The goal is to add a second ‘anchor’ which will output the image to a second ‘
   paragraph’, but I’m unable to find any resources nor ideas for this. I would 
   appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction.
 * Another part I wish to add is for the send_to_editor function to add the URL 
   to a text input. The ‘anchor’ class is created with Javascript’s createElement
   function in a for loop if that helps. Thanks!
