jQuery Alert Dialogs Plug-in

When you want to alert the user in the client side of a web application probably you are embarrassed (or you don’t give a damn) when you use Javascript built-in alerts. I know I do. Javascript built-in alerts are very ugly IMHO and therefore I try to use alternatives instead. In this post I’ll show a very useful alternative that I’ve been using lately in more then one project – the jQuery Alert Dialogs plug-in.

jQuery Alert Dialogs Plug-in

One of the benefits of using jQuery is the amount of jQuery plug-ins that exists in jQuery eco-system. But the amount of plug-ins also makes it very difficult to find your desired plug-in for each behavior you need. One of the plug-ins I’m using frequently is the jQuery Alert Dialogs. The plug-in “aims to replace the basic functionality provided by the standard JavaScript alert(), confirm(), and prompt() functions”. The plug-in also simulate the use of these standard functions and also gives you the power to create your own style.

How to use the plug-in?

First you will have to download the plug-in from this link – jQuery Alert Dialogs. Also you will have to download jQuery UI Draggable plug-in which the plug-in has dependency on it (or download all the jQuery UI package like I did). After you downloaded all the relevant scripts you will have to add the plug-ins to your web application.
