How do I add a don't show this again check box to an alert? 1

[Mthales]

On lots of web pages and applications there is the very nice feature of putting a "don't show this message again" check box on messages that pop up several times.

I have found that the alert is a very easy way to get the messages but does anyone know if there is an easy way to add a "don't show this again" check box?

it is impossible to alter the look and feel of standard javascript alerts, confirms, and prompts. you will need to custom-create either a css-styled element or a popup window to do what you're requesting.

you can then store a cookie on the user's machine, marking that they've seen the message and don't want to see it again.

Ah right thanks for that - I'll not waist time trying to do the impossible - I'll investigate popup windows and css-styled elements instead.
