Cetin,

Your suggestion put the ";" at the end didn't help. But I know now
what causes the problem (even though I don't understand why).
At the end of that page code I have a statement

Response.Redirect( "mypage.aspx", true );

Which does not let the Alert to show up, unless you put Return after
the Alert. Maybe I am thinking more like VFP, if you put a modal
message box (which Alert is, right), the code execution should stop
here, until user clicks Ok. But I guess in ASP.NET it does not
work that way.
