php: creating alert

**casy** · 05-08-2003, 09:03 PM

I am new to using PHP, i like to know how can i create an alert box similar to those created in javascript??

PHP runs server side, so you can't make an alert with it. You can use PHP to write a javascript alert though, or just echo some text to the screen...

thx, think i got it, u mean to jump put of php and write a javascript statement for the alert rite??

just another question, if i were to get an error that says:

syntax error near unexpected token `<html>'

what does it mean?? or how should i solve it??

1. Yes, either jump out of PHP, or write it using PHP using echo or print

2. Post the code that is giving you trouble...

this is the code:

<html>
<head>
<title>Admin Login</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor=#F0FFFF>
<?
$user=$HTTP_POST_VARS["user"];
$password=$HTTP_POST_VARS["password"];

if(empty($user)||empty($password))
{
?>
<script language="javascript">

</script>
<?
}
?>
</body>
</html>
