Nico,

thanks again for your kind help

however, i don't know why it's still not working as intended when i tried.

i change nothing..100% copy and paste as written by u.

when i put that code in one of my pages, the word 'click me' become as a link (when i preview in browser)..and when i click on that lick, no popup (message box) come out.

FYI, i use XSitePro as a website builder.

i've never try with Microsoft Frontpage.

Is it possible because of that software?

Or do i need to upload that page to the hosting server first (instead of preview with browser but still in my hard disk)?

Thanks again for advice.

I've never used (or heard of) XSitePro. The editor usually shouldn't make a difference, though. But if however the software changes things in your code, it's time to find a new one.

A lot of people hate Frontpage (I've never used it), but after everything I've heard I wouldn't even bother trying it.

Take a look at this thread for some suggestions:

And there's no problem with previewing the script on your computer. Maybe try creating a blank page in notepad, and copy and paste the code in there, then save it as "something.html" and open it in your web browser. If that doesn't work either, chances are that you haven't enabled Javascript on your browser?

Glad I could help.

And yeah, try using a different editor. I can highly suggest Dreamweaver.

Dear Nico,

yeahhh..it works with Frontpage too ..at least no need for me to move to Dreamweaver..

can the popup just only show the 'OK' button...no 'cancel' button?

if can, what is the script for that?

thanks again

[Nico]

Try this:

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function popup()
{
    alert('Thank you!');
    window.location = 'http://www.abc.com';
 
    return false;
}
//-->
</script>
 
<a href="#" onclick="return popup();">Click me</a>
