Cannot get Alert to work

Where do you put this code?

In the before record updated event. It is checking to see if a record exists but has been stripped down to just this code just to get it working. The application is running on a 2008 server and everything else seems to work properly. If I create a stand alone php script with the code, it works fine. Put it in the event, and it gets ignored. Is there any other way to create a pop up window besides alert?
Thanks

Events expect PHP code which means Javascript won't work there.
Try the following:
echo '<script language=javascript>alert("This is a test");</script>';

Already tried that. Still does not work. Could it have anything to do with the php.ini file missing?

Have no idea how php.ini is related to this issue.
I recommend to post your application to Demo Account (use 'Demo Account' button on the last screen in program). Then open a ticket at http://support.xlinesoft.com sending your Demo Account URL for investigation.

Try this, it worked for me:
echo "<script>alert('Your message')</script>";

Thanks, but I already tried switching the quotes. The strange thing is if I open it in 5.0 and build, it works. Open in 5.1 and build, the java script will not execute. The events are working, but the script doesn't. I've also tried it in other events and it still will not execute. This is very frustrating.

This is a followup. I created a new project from scratch using 5.0. One table, one event with the "alert" code. Everything works. Do the exact same thing with 5.1, it will not work!!!! I've uninstalled/reinstalled 5.1, but still the same problem. Also, whenever I change a table (i.e. add a field), 5.1 will not pick up the change. I have to open in 5.0, save and then it shows up in 5.1. Any help or suggestions.......

Post your application to Demo Account (use 'Demo Account' button on the last screen in program). Then open a ticket at http://support.xlinesoft.com sending your Demo Account URL for investigation.

Sergev,
