Question

I'm trying to trigger an alert close once an event happens. Currently I get a popup when the internet cuts out (I want that). But once the connection is reestablished, I want the popup to automatically go away - not having to hit exit or OK.

I have this code:

 setInterval(function(){
if(navigator.onLine){
    ( ".selector" ).popup( "close" );
}else{
    window.alert("It seems you have lost connection to the internet. 
Please reconnect before continuing.");
}},2000);

Thanks

Solution

As far as I know you cannot close the javascript's alert(); by code. You can try to use alternative notification method like modal window or something (so then if user is back online you can simply use jQuery function to hide/remove the modal box).

OTHER TIPS

According to my knowledge Java Script Alert box cant be change or close programmatically. So you can use Jquery UI Dialog box or bootstrap model or something else.
