JavaScript-Alert (alert message dialog)

When we visit a website, sometimes a small window pops up suddenly, with a text of prompt information written on it.

If you don't click "OK", you can't do any operations on the webpage. This small window is implemented using alert function

Alert Syntax:

alert(string or variable);

Look at the code below:

<script type="text/javascript">
   var mynum = 30;
   alert("hello!");
   alert(mynum);
</script>

Note: alert pops up a message dialog (with an OK button).

Result: message boxes pop up in order

Notice:

Before clicking the "OK" button in the dialog box, no other operations can be performed.
Message dialogs are often useful for debugging programs.
Alert output content, which can be a string or a variable, similar to document.write.
