My request is for someone to help me solve the problem indicated
above.
When I run this using IIS on my computer I do not get this error.
"formValid.js" is where all of the javascript is located. It is
referenced on the .aspx page like this:
<script type="text/javascript" src="..\App_Code\formValid.js"/>

Thank you for any help you offer.
Fred

alert, confirm, prompt are not native Javascript methods: they are
methods of window host object so they really are window.alert,
window.confirm, window.prompt
It is just common yet not suggested shortcut to use them without
indicating the parent object. If there is not window, then where is
not such methods as you may guess.
To pass over Visual Studio compilation you may add at the beginning of
your file something like:

if (typeof alert == 'undefined') {
var alert : new Function;
var confirm : new Function;
var prompt : new Function;
var window = {
'alert' : alert;
'confirm' : confirm;
'prompt' : prompt;
}
}

Sigh. [psf 10.1]

`alert' is a method of a host-defined property (`window') of the Global
Object that is available client-side only. ASP .NET is server-side.

You are the second person this week to ask such a question. Please search
before you post.

When I run this using IIS on my computer I do not get this error.
"formValid.js" is where all of the javascript is located. It is
referenced on the .aspx page like this:
<script type="text/javascript" src="..\App_Code\formValid.js"/>

http://validator.w3.org/ applied to the response probably shows why that is
wrong.

Why do people have to mess around with things before they got the basics?
Has an ASP .NET class started recently?
