Intercept and convert all alerts to notifications


So I'm using Gritter for notifications throughout a site, and was wondering if there was a simple way to intersept all the alert() s thrown by any script, with jQuery, and reformat the value of the alert to the body of a Gritter notification?


Solution

  • You can replace the alert function and do whatever you want with the arguments:

    window.alert = function (message) {
        $.gritter.add({
            title: 'Message for you sir!',
            text: message
        });
    };
