20 # org.apache.cordova.dialogs
21
22 This plugin provides access to some native dialog UI elements
23 via a global `navigator.notification` object.
24
25 Although the object is attached to the global scoped `navigator`, it is not available until after the `deviceready` event.
26
27 document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, false);
28 function onDeviceReady() {
29 console.log(navigator.notification);
30 }
31
32 ## Installation

40 - `navigator.notification.prompt`
41 - `navigator.notification.beep`
42
43 ## navigator.notification.alert
44
45 Shows a custom alert or dialog box. Most Cordova implementations use a native
46 dialog box for this feature, but some platforms use the browser's `alert`
47 function, which is typically less customizable.

51 - __message__: Dialog message. _(String)_

85 ### Windows Phone 7 and 8 Quirks
86

88
89 window.alert = navigator.notification.alert;
90
91 - Both `alert` and `confirm` are non-blocking calls, results of which are only available asynchronously.
92

94
95 Both native-blocking `window.alert()` and non-blocking `navigator.notification.alert()` are available.
96

117 The `confirmCallback` executes when the user presses one of the
118 buttons in the confirmation dialog box.
119
120 The callback takes the argument `buttonIndex` _(Number)_, which is the
121 index of the pressed button. Note that the index uses one-based
122 indexing, so the value is `1`, `2`, `3`, etc.
123
124 ### Example
125
126 function onConfirm(buttonIndex) {
127 alert('You selected button ' + buttonIndex);
128 }
129
130 navigator.notification.confirm(
131 'You are the winner!', // message
132 onConfirm, // callback to invoke with index of button pressed
133 'Game Over', // title
134 ['Restart','Exit'] // buttonLabels
135 );

172
173 - __message__: Dialog message. _(String)_

186 in the prompt dialog box. The `results` object passed to the callback
187 contains the following properties:
188
189 - __buttonIndex__: The index of the pressed button. _(Number)_ Note that the index uses one-based indexing, so the value is `1`, `2`, `3`, etc.
190
191
192
193 - __input1__: The text entered in the prompt dialog box. _(String)_
194
195 ### Example

197 function onPrompt(results) {
198 alert("You selected button number " + results.buttonIndex + " and entered " + results.input1);
199 }
200
