change this alert/confirm box

crmpicco · March 9th, 2005, 12:19 PM

I have a else statement in my <script> block:

else
{
    // Acrobat is NOT installed. Do something else.
    document.write("Acrobat is NOT installed.")
    alert ("You do not have Adobe Acrobat Installed. Click OK to download this software")
}

does anyone have code so i could change this alert/confirm box so that if a 'OK' button on the box is clicked then go to a page on the Adobe site. else if a 'continue' button is clicked then submit the form on the page.

You need the confirm button, which always shows 'OK' or 'Cancel':

Code:

if (confirm("Choose 'OK' to download Acrobat Reader now, choose 'Cancel' to continue."))
{
  window.location = <url for reader download>;
}
else
{
 //continue ...
}

hey joe,
i have a new problem
when the 'File Download - Security Warning' dialogue box appears when cancel button is clicked i want to redirect to the previous page:

Code:

question = confirm("You do not have Adobe Acrobat Reader Installed on your system. \n\nClick OK to download this software now. Click Cancel to go Back")
    if (question !="0"){
        top.location = 'http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/7x/7.0/enu/AdbeRdr70_enu_full.exe'
    }
    if (question =="0"){
        history.back()
    }
