How to show an alert box in PHP?

Question

I want to display an alert box showing a message with PHP.

Here is my PHP code:

<?php  
  header("Location:form.php");

  echo '<script language="javascript">';
  echo 'alert(message successfully sent)';  //not showing an alert box.
  echo '</script>';
  exit;
?>

But it is not working.

Solution 1

use this code

echo '<script language="javascript">';
echo 'alert("message successfully sent")';
echo '</script>';

The problem was:

1. you missed "
2. It should be alert not alery

Solution 2

Try this:

Define a funciton:

<?php
function phpAlert($msg) {
    echo '<script type="text/javascript">alert("' . $msg . '")</script>';
}
?>

Call it like this:

<?php phpAlert(   "Hello world!\\n\\nPHP has got an Alert Box"   );  ?>

Solution 3

There is a syntax error (typo):

It's alert not alery.

Solution 4

echo "<script>alert('same message');</script>";

This may help.

Solution 5

echo '<script language="javascript>';

Seems like a simple typo. You're missing a double-quote.

echo '<script language="javascript">';

This should do.
