Basic HTML Pop-Up

6.4k · June 17, 2004

recently i went on a website which had a pop-up message saying:

"click yes to enter the website"

however the only option was to click 'ok' so obviously you couldnt enter the website,

possibly it was done by refreshing the page each time 'ok' was clicked,

but it wasnt just the same 'once off' pop up copy and pasted loads of times because i held down enter for a while, and the message just kept poping up, and there was no way it was copy and pasted THAT many times,

so what is the HTML code for this pop up which yuo cant get rid of?

no, most likely it was Java or Java Scrypt

very similar to: Weird Stuff Linky

ok, so how would i make it!

admiral_ju00 · June 17, 2004

well, i take it you went to that link. (it does no damage, just annoys you).

but, you can either do what that site does and you have to fulfil the reqs of the code(clicking OK till it finishes it's message) or create a loop w/ in a loop, with nothing to break(terminate) the cycle.

i dont think i can click ok forever, maybe it was on a loop...

but how can i program that, with what program?

admiral_ju00 · June 17, 2004

well, that link has an end to the loop, so eventually you'll get out of it. i did it a few times. and one time i was extremely bored, i actually read the entire thing this guy had there. lol, that took away 20 minutes of my life i'll never be able to recover. but also pressing and holding the Enter/Return button will get you out since it'll keep on clicking OK......

well for Java Script, you don't need any programs(i think), but for Java, you'll need to either download or buy one. although i haven't seen a free version of Java.

ok, but what is the code in java script language

admiral_ju00 · June 17, 2004

java

It was a modal prompt, which is the most basic dialogue that JavaScript can trigger.

It was probably attached to an "onLoad", "onFocus" or "onMouseOver" event.

Note that java and javascript have nothing to do with each other, despite the names.

hmm, wasn't aware of that.

but then that will explain why java needs a compiler and java script does not.

(i've never touched java and never will )

JavaScript is an interpreted language developed by Netscape. It started life as "LiveWire", then was renamed "LiveScript", and eventually became known as "JavaScript" after being passed to the ECMA.

Java is a compiled programming language that Sun Microsystems started developing in 1990.

If you want it for your website, then, a little word of warning. It is VERY annoying to some people on the net. Doing it may PERMANENTLY damage the number of viewers on your site. So, just watch out

Sayonara · June 17, 2004

If you want to make your own pop-up prompt, this is the code:

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!-- 
function myAlert() {
 alert("Your properly escaped message here")
}
// -->
</script>

^-- Goes before your closing HEAD tag.

 on[Event]="myAlert()"

^-- as an attribute of the HTML element you want to trigger the alert.

You can find the list of generic events here:

http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-Events/events.html#Events-eventgroupings-htmlevents

You should only use an alert if you really really really have no alternative.

Sayonara³: That will display one alert box, for an infinite loop of them you'd use this code.

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!-- 
function myAlert() {
 var i = 1;
 while(i > 0) {
   alert("Your properly escaped message here");
 }
}
// -->
</script>

then to do it when the page loads, make your body tag look like this:

<body onload="myAlert();">

I haven't tested this code, but I can't see why it won't work.

Sayonara · June 18, 2004

That would work (if you included code to reload the page after the prompt is cleared), but since the prompt is modal all you have to do for infinite pop-ups with my code is make the event "onFocus". It's less typing

As soon as you clear the prompt, the trigger regains focus and voila! New prompt.

thanks ive done this and it works, just a warning, i think the only way to shut the windows is to log off [network or windows itself] or shut down your computer! but thanks loads, good prank for friends, ill upload it to a website and tell you all the address, but dont go to it, coz u wont get out, i dont think anyway, maybe u could terminate the program! internet explorer

read my above message for the script,

this has been hosted on:

not any more, the sites down

only go on this is you dont want to get out, actually, you can get out, but only by ending the process, in windows this is ctrl+alt+del

kinda off the subject, go onto

http://www.teamcti.com/pview/prcview.htm

this is a good reliable process viewer, and when you click 'kill task' unlike windows, it will terminate the program instantly wtvr program it is! even windows.exe!!!

go to:

Man, that was close.

I tried that on my site but the message kept repeating, unlike I thought it would. Thank goodness for the "Javascript" checkbox in FF, or I never would have been able to fix it either.

well yeah, because of

<body onload="myAlert();">

that part of course it will work (assuming the rest is set up fine) seemingly my site is no longer working, fear not, i will upload into school's shared area under the name "please read"!
