Question

I am facing problem while calling the alert box. Can I know what is the procedure to call the box in JSP?

My function is

<script type="text/javascript" src="js/ufo.js"></script>
<script  type="text/javascript">
    function foon() {
        alert("Sorry! you are not a valid user!! click here to go back to login!!!");
        history.back(1);
    }
</script>

Now how to call foon() function inside if statement?

Answer 1

Probably you want something like:

<c:if test="something"><script type="text/javascript">foon()</script></c:if>

Alternately you could embed your alert right there, depends on your need to reuse.
