    Hi. Yes it works. Here is an exerpt of what use for a problem like yours :

            $n_nom . " dans ManagIP.");
...
...
#                                                                     
+                
# You can use the javascript:alert instead                            
+                
#                                                                     
+                
sub ConfirmBox
{
    my ($Message) = @_;

      I think you're confusing the issue. The OP knows he can print javascript/html, but its still the browser that pops up the alert.
