JavaScript Provides you three types of Popup Box:

Alert box
Confirm box
Prompt box

Alert box : Aletbox is quiet similar with the message box in the vb script. It will be used to make sure for getting input from the user. It also provide the OK button for further continue.

Confirm Box : This Box contains the Ok and Cancel button. If use clicks on the cancel the box will return the false value. If user clicks on the Ok then true value is returned.

Prompt Box : This box contains the OK and cancel button. If user is inputting the value then you can provide this box to user.
