Alert Boxes that are not "alert boxes" --- What Happened?
Oh my, what's with the redesigned alert box function? I've been away from Creator for several months so I don't know when this change happened.
The Help documentation and 2+ years of direct experience w/ Creator taught me that when you created an "Alert Box" with the alert "<message>" command, an alert box (like what the world is familiar with) would pop up in your view to get an urgent message to you.
But now, it seems Zoho has a better idea? Put the alert message down at the very bottom of the form where you might just miss it. I know, someone must've said "Let's put it next to the Submit button now." Remember most users learn how to submit a form by pressing the Enter key when they're ready, and don't touch the Submit button on some forms.
It's about basic function. Could someone in dev please return this function to popping up a real alert box, or at least some kind of pop-up in-your-face alert? Oddly enough, a pop-up alert does appear, but it only tells you there was a problem. Why can't the alert message but put in that box??
Thank you.
