Well if there was no OK, then your alert wouldn't go away, so the yare there for a reason, although you can get rid of it if you add options.

Example:

mob/verb/AlertTest()
switch(alert("Test","Testing Alert","Yes","No"))
if("Yes")
alert("You are Correct! We are indeed testing Alert!")
if("No")
alert("Of Course You Are!")

you dont get what i mean. You know where you use your say verbs at? well it says OK there no matter what the options are.

Maybe you aren't explaining it right. It sounds like it's doing exactly what you're telling it to. It's sending usr an alert with a message and an "OK" option to make it go away.

No No No....

its like i made a verb that does this:
mob/verb/test1()
usr << alert("HEY THIS WILL SEND AN OK!")
usr << "OK"
But i dont tell it to to that i tell it to do this.
mob/verb/test1()
usr << alert("HEY THIS WILL SEND AN OK!")

That's because you are outputting the return value of the alert() to the usr. The alert() returns "OK", which is output to usr.

try putting return 0 at the end of the alert
