I need to add a small popup window with instructions, then the visitor clicks Ok and continue. Anyone can tell me how to do that in HTML.

Thanks.

You can do a clickable link like this:

<a href="javascript:alert('Put your text for the pop-up here.');">Put your text to click on here.</a>'

Or you can do something that runs when the page opens by replacing your tag with this:

<body onLoad="javascript:alert('Put your text for the pop-up here.');">'

Thanks. It worked. Is it possible to add this in a PDF document. When someone opens a pdf document they will get the popup.

I'm not sure if this applies to this thread, if not please ignore.

Thanks for your help.

That particular method only works with a HTML document. However, you could have the HTML document then immediately redirect to a pdf.

<body onLoad="javascript:alert('I am redirecting you to Google.');window.location='http://www.google.com';">'
