You can change that css class propety to change the alert background color,back color etcJavascript Code
<script language=javascript type="text/javascript">
// constants to define the title of the alert and button text.
var ALERT_TITLE = "Alert";
var ALERT_BUTTON_TEXT = "Ok";
// over-ride the alert method only if this a newer browser.
// Older browser will see standard alerts
if (document.getElementById)
{
window.alert = function(txt)
{
createCustomAlert(txt);
}
}
function createCustomAlert(txt) {
// shortcut reference to the document object
d = document;
// if the modalContainer object already exists in the DOM, bail out.
if (d.getElementById("modalContainer")) return;
// create the modalContainer div as a child of the BODY element
mObj = d.getElementsByTagName("body")[0].appendChild(d.createElement("div"));
mObj.id = "modalContainer";
// make sure its as tall as it needs to be to overlay all the content on the page
mObj.style.height = document.documentElement.scrollHeight + "px";
// create the DIV that will be the alert
alertObj = mObj.appendChild(d.createElement("div"));
alertObj.id = "alertBox";
// MSIE doesnt treat position:fixed correctly, so this compensates for positioning the alert
if (d.all && !window.opera) {
alertObj.style.top = document.documentElement.scrollTop + "px";
}
// center the alert box
alertObj.style.left = (d.documentElement.scrollWidth - alertObj.offsetWidth) / 2 + "px";
// create an H1 element as the title bar
h1 = alertObj.appendChild(d.createElement("h1"));
h1.appendChild(d.createTextNode(ALERT_TITLE));
// create a paragraph element to contain the txt argument
msg = alertObj.appendChild(d.createElement("p"));
msg.innerHTML = txt;
// create an anchor element to use as the confirmation button.
btn = alertObj.appendChild(d.createElement("a"));
btn.id = "closeBtn";
btn.appendChild(d.createTextNode(ALERT_BUTTON_TEXT));
btn.href = "#";
// set up the onclick event to remove the alert when the anchor is clicked
btn.onclick = function() {
removeCustomAlert();
return false;
}
}
// removes the custom alert from the DOM
function removeCustomAlert() {
document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0].removeChild(document.getElementById("modalContainer"));
}
</script>
Call the the javascript function and pass the message to show as alert
Example:
<input type="button" value = "Customize Alert" onclick="alert('Customize Alert');" />
