jQuery Alert Box

Question

Is there a good way to set an alert with jQuery?

i have a PDF that i need my visitors to agree to before the proceed...

So: User Clicks PDF link Alert Box opens: "you must agree to our statement before we give you this PDF" I Agree button (PDF download proceeds) / I Disagree Button (box closes and original page is displayed)

Is that the best method to handle this?

Should i use a dialog box?

Answer 1

I would suggest using a modal confirmation dialog. It also blends out the background, making the dialog more prominent.

The documentation is under http://jqueryui.com/demos/dialog/#modal-confirmation
