Just wondering if I have an alert("Line 1\nLine 2\nLine 3") Will this create an alert popup that has each Line by itself? or will they run together?

\n creates a new line in alert boxes. :)

Ok what about Tabing? And I ended up just doing an HTML Table, but I liked the alert box better, but now I see that the Alert box is limited :(
Also couldn't get my stats to space right either.

Aye :\ The font in your popup window is determined by windows, which is almost NEVER a fixed font :) (I'm a fixed font fan myself,w00t). But I still say a tab is better to display stats, because it's real-time ;)

Of course :P But the stats I was talking about is like the stats for the Space Ships in my game, so you can compare what each of them have in a listing.

Why did you like the alert box better?

If you already have an HTML table set up, you can easily use a popup browser window for your display, complete with an "OK" button that closes the window.
