I'm using Chrome 14 and OSX 10.5.8.
If a website generates a Javascript alert window with a lot of content (like debug information) the bottom of the window disappears off the screen.
This places the buttons out of reach and means there is no way of closing the alert window as the "traffic light" of window buttons doesn't appear in the top left-hand corner.
Having the alert window open disables various actions on Chrome and makes it unusable. The only way I've been able to close the alert window is using "Force Quit" to close Chrome down totally.
Is there anyway of closing a Chrome Javascript alert window that is too big for screen in OSX?
1you can't just hit enter?? generally on an alert the 'ok' has focus by default. i'm not sure about OSX, i'm a windows guy. – rlemon – 2011-10-16T21:01:55.700
Why would you use
alert
for debug info? Useconsole.log
- the console was made for debugging. – Zirak – 2011-10-16T21:02:14.277Zirak - this is how Silverstripe CMS uses alert boxes for some of it's debugging. – BaronGrivet – 2011-10-16T22:30:12.980
