Prompt Dialog Box

The prompt dialog box is very useful when you want to pop-up a text box to get user
input. Thus, it enables you to interact with the user. The user needs to fill in
the field and then click OK.

This dialog box is displayed using a method called prompt() which takes two
parameters: (i) a label which you want to display in the text box and (ii) a
default string to display in the text box.

This dialog box has two buttons: OK and Cancel.


If the user clicks the OK button, the window method prompt() will return the
entered value from the text box.
If the user clicks the Cancel button,
the window method prompt() returns null.

Confirmation Dialog Box


A confirmation dialog box is mostly used to take user's consent on any option.
It displays a dialog box with two buttons: OK and Cancel.

If the user clicks on the OK button, the window method confirm() will return true.
If the user clicks on the Cancel button, then confirm() returns false.
You can use a confirmation dialog box as follows.

Alert Dialog Box


An alert dialog box is mostly used to give a warning message to the users.
For example, if one input field requires to enter some text but the user does not
provide any input, then as a part of validation, you can use an alert box to give a
warning message.

Nonetheless, an alert box can still be used for friendlier messages. Alert box
gives only one button "OK" to select and proceed.
