I am trying to look up options on the German DB web site but I can't find Prague as a destination. I assume they must be looking for the German name for Prague. Does anyone know what name to use?

The English name, Prague, has always worked for me. The German spelling, Prag, works too, as does the Czech name, Praha hl.n.
Are you really using the German Rail website, http://reiseauskunft.bahn.de/bin/query.exe/en?
When you query the website, the bus connection will be to Praha hl.n., (Autobusová St. Wilsonova). That's the bus station attached to the main rail station in Prague.
There are bus connections to Prague (Autobusová St. Wilsonova) from Mannheim, Nuernberg, and Munich. There are direct trains to Praha hl.n. (the main train station) from Munich, Regensburg, or Schwandorf.

Thanks Lee. I was using the right site but I guess I was getting confused when you start typing the name a list of "other" destinations that starts with P comes up but nothing like Prague or Praha is on the list. I just needed to keep typing and a different list come up. Thanks again for your response.

That's interesting. I've typed Prague and Prag so many times, and it remembers. Now I just type a 'P' and PRAGUE and Prag Hbf are on the list that pops up.
