Accept multiple inputs from user and add to certain cells in a new row

I am trying to do the following in Google sheets using their script.

1) Accept multiple inputs from a user 2) Copy/paste the current last row to a new row underneath (the last row includes formulas I want to re-use) 3) Take the multiple inputs and fill out certain cells in the NEW last row.

For example, I have a column with labels: Product, Quantity, Cost, Tax, Ship, Buy. Product, Quantity, Cost are user inputs. Tax, Ship and Buy are formulas.

I want to prompt the user for "Product", "Quantity", "Cost" in one form.

Then I want to copy down the last row, and enter the results of "Product", "Quantity", "Cost" into the new last row.

Here is the script I have so far, I feel like I am so close:

function onOpen() {
  SpreadsheetApp.getUi()
      .createMenu('Evaluate')
      .addItem('Add New Row', 'addNewRow')
      .addItem('Compare', 'getData')
      .addToUi();
}

var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActive();

function addNewRow() {
  var sh = ss.getActiveSheet(), lRow = sh.getLastRow(); 
  var lCol = sh.getLastColumn(), range = sh.getRange(lRow,1,1,lCol);
  sh.insertRowsAfter(lRow, 1);
  range.copyTo(sh.getRange(lRow+1, 1, 1, lCol), {contentsOnly:false});
}

function getData() {
  var ui = SpreadsheetApp.getUi();

  var result = ui.prompt(
      'Product',
      ui.ButtonSet.OK_CANCEL);

  var productName = result.getResponseText();

  var sh = ss.getActiveSheet();
  var lRow = sh.getLastRow(), lCol = sh.getLastColumn();

  var productRange = sh.getRange(lRow,1).setValue(productName);

}

I can't figure out: 1) How to create a prompt that accepts multiple inputs 2) How to place that in cells based on the column title (seems more efficient that way)

Thank you.

This is an example of how to create an HTML dialog that accepts more than one value. It has some other things in there also.

The Code.gs file:

function doGet()
{
  var html = HtmlService.createHtmlOutputFromFile('index');
  return html.setXFrameOptionsMode(HtmlService.XFrameOptionsMode.ALLOWALL)

}

function showDialog()
{
    var ui=HtmlService.createHtmlOutputFromFile('index');
    SpreadsheetApp.getUi().showModelessDialog(ui,'Title');
}

function getData(a)
{
  var ts = Utilities.formatDate(new Date(), "GMT-6", "M/d/yyyy' 'HH:mm:ss");
  a.splice(0,0,ts);
  var ss=SpreadsheetApp.openById('SPREADSHEETID')
  ss.getSheetByName('Form Responses 1').appendRow(a);
  return true;
}

function getURL()
{
  var ss=SpreadsheetApp.openById('SPREADSHEETID');
  var sht=ss.getSheetByName('imgURLs');
  var rng=sht.getDataRange();
  var rngA=rng.getValues();
  var urlA=[];
  for(var i=1;i<rngA.length;i++)
  {
    urlA.push(rngA[i][0]);
  }
  return urlA;
}

The index.html file:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <base target="_top">
  </head>
  <body>
  <div id="data">
    <br />Text 1<input name="t1" type="text" size="15" id="txt1" placeholder="Text 1" />
    <br />Text 2<input name="t2" type="text" size="15" id="txt2" placeholder="Text 2" />
    <br />Text 3<input name="t3" type="text" size="15" id="txt3" placeholder="Text 3" />
    <br />Text 4<input name="t4" type="text" size="15" id="txt4" placeholder="Text 4" />
    <br /><input type="radio" name="Type" value="Member" checked />Member
    <br /><input type="radio" name="Type" value="Guest" />Guest
    <br /><input type="radio" name="Type" value="Intruder" />Intruder
    <br /><input type="button" value="submit" id="btn1" />
    <br /><img id="img1" src="" alt="img1" width="300" />
  </div>
  <div id="resp" style="display:none;">
    <h1>Response</h1>
    <p>Your data has been received.</p>
  </div>
    <script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
    <script>
      $(function() {
        $('#btn1').click(validate);
        $('#txt4').val('');
        $('#txt3').val('');
        $('#txt2').val('');
        $('#txt1').val('')
        google.script.run
          .withSuccessHandler(setURL)
          .getURL();
      });
      function setURL(url)
      {
        $('#img1').attr('src',url[0]);
      }
      function setResponse(a)
      {
        if(a)
        {
          $('#data').css('display','none');
          $('#resp').css('display','block');
        }
      }

      function validate()
      {
        var txt1 = document.getElementById('txt1').value || '';
        var txt2 = document.getElementById('txt2').value || '';
        var txt3 = document.getElementById('txt3').value || '';
        var txt4 = document.getElementById('txt4').value || '';
        var type = $('input[name="Type"]:checked').val();
        var a = [txt1,txt2,txt3,txt4,type];
        if(txt1 && txt2 && txt3 && txt4)
        {
          google.script.run
            .withSuccessHandler(setResponse)
            .getData(a);
            return true;
        }
        else
        {
          alert('All fields must be completed.');
        }
      }

      function loadTxt(from,to)
      {
          document.getElementById(to).value = document.getElementById(from).value;
      }

      function radioValue()
      {
        var radios = document.getElementsByName('genderS');
        for (var i = 0, length = radios.length; i < length; i++) 
        {
          if(radios[i].checked) 
          {
            return radios[i].value;
          }
        }
      }


     console.log('My Code');
   </script>
  </body>
</html>
