Alert Messages

Alert message on page load.

This is what you saw when you came in. It's done with this in the head tags:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
function entryAlert() {
        alert("Your warning goes here");
        return " ";
}

And this inside the body tag, like this:


<BODY  onLoad = 'entryAlert();'>





Alert message with confirm


This script puts an alert message with a confirm button.  If the user accepts, they're sent to the page, if they don't, they go back to the referring page. It's done by putting this in the head tags:


<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
function entryConfirm() {
if (!confirm
("This site takes about 3 minutes to load. Do you want to continue loading it?"))
        history.go(-1);
}



and then adding this to the body tag, like this:

<BODY onload = 'entryConfirm();'>




Alert message when mouse moves off a link


This script pops up a message when the mouse moves off of a link, like this:

Don't move!
To do this, add this code after the <A href="blahblah"> in your links:



onMouseOut='alert("Your message here")'


Alert when mouse moves over


This pops up an alert message when the mouse moves over a link, like this:

Don't touch me!
Unfortuanately, you can only use one messages, since you need to put this in the head tags:



<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

function AlertText() {
        alert("Your message here");
}

</SCRIPT>

Then you add this to your links after the <A href="blahblah">:



onMouseOver="AlertText();"
