Question: How do I pop up an alert in JavaScript?

I tried `alert"HELLO"` but that didn't work.

Can someone tell me the correct syntax?

Answer: 
if you're having problems with alerts, it probably means your javascript is disabled in your browser, but if it isn't these methods should solve your issue.

```
<script type="text/javascript" >
    window.alert("Hello World!");

    alert("Hello World!");
</script>

```
Just add parentheses and enclosed it within the script tag.

```
<script type="text/javascript" >
  alert("hello");
</script>

```
