There's a number of instances where we have the generic code;
<?php if (@$errorsAndAlerts): ?>
<div style="color: #C00; font-weight: bold; font-size: 14px; font-family: arial;"><br/>
<?php echo $errorsAndAlerts; ?><br/>
</div>
<?php endif ?>I was wondering if there's a way of having all these pop-up rather than be embedded within the page?

Something like this might work for you:
<?php if (@$errorsAndAlerts): ?>
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
alert('<?php echo $errorsAndAlerts; ?>');
</script>
<?php endif ?>Hope that helps,

If you just click the subscribe button here http://182.160.128.132/~hannahdi/team.php with no data, the error appears under the form, but not as a pop-up.
I've place both the original alert code, and the new one to check.
Any suggestions?
<div id="newsletter">
<?php if ($showSignupForm): ?>
<form method="post" action="?">
<input type="hidden" name="save" value="1" />
<input type="text" name="email" value="<?php echo htmlspecialchars(@$_REQUEST['email']); ?>" class="newsField" />
<input class="newsButton" type="submit" name="submit" value="Go" />
</form>
<?php endif ?>
<p><a href="subscribers.php">Want more information?</a></p>
<?php if (@$errorsAndAlerts): ?>
<div style="color: #C00; font-weight: bold; font-size: 14px; font-family: arial;"><br/>
<?php echo $errorsAndAlerts; ?><br/>
</div>
<?php endif ?>
<?php if (@$errorsAndAlerts): ?>
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
alert('<?php echo $errorsAndAlerts; ?>');
</script>
<?php endif ?>
</div>Tim (toledoh.com.au)

There seems to be an error with the javascript. Try this:
<?php if (@$errorsAndAlerts): ?>
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
alert("<?php echo nl2br($errorsAndAlerts); ?>");
</script>
<?php endif ?>This will also change any new line characters in your message into HTML <br> tags.
Hope this helps.

You get an "unterminated literal" javascript error. When you're giving a value to $errorsAndReports, try not includinng any line break characters.
If that doesn't work, could you attach your .php file so I can take a closer look.

I've done that, but still no go.
Have a look at the attached, which is included on every page - such as http://182.160.128.132/~hannahdi/index.php (Maybe the fact that there are 2 forms on team.php may be causing an issue?)

If you view the HTML Source of your page, you'll see that there is a line break inside the $errorAndAlerts message. I believe this is what's causing your javascript error.
So, for example, instead of assigning a value to $errorsAndAlerts like this:
$errorsAndAlerts .= "You must enter your email address!<br/>\n";You could try this:
$errorsAndAlerts .= "You must enter your email address!";Give that a try.
Hope this helps

This is working, but I now get the pop-up alert, press OK, and then the message "Prevent this page from creating additional dfialogues" appears with a tick box.
Can you suggest what I should do to not have this?
Screen grab attached.
