You Cannot Change the Title of an Alert Box

Question:
How can I change the title of a JavaScript alert box from “www.www.www (JavaScript Application)” to whatever I want?

Answer:
Simple?you can’t. Unfortunately, JavaScript coders don’t have any control over the title bar of the dialog boxes displayed as a result of alert(), confirm(), or input() methods. If you really need this type of control you can go the extra step and use the window.open() method to create a new browser window that displays your message.
