Prompt - Cancel/OK Result?

[Chris Ashley]

Hi there,

Does the prompt method return a value indicating which button the user
pressed (OK or Cancel) ? If so, how can I access this as it just seems
to return the text the user entered?

Thanks,

Chris

If user clicked OK, the value is not null.
If user clicked Cancel, the value is null.

var p;
p = prompt('What is your age ?','');

if (p == null) {
alert('Cancel was clicked.');
}
else {
alert('OK was clicked.');
}

If user clicked Cancel, the value is null.

And if user clicked the X the value is null.
