ezinbox alert window
Summary: Popup a window or javascript alert when there are new messages in your ezInbox.

HEAD (box #1):
 
<script type="text/javascript">
/* EZINBOX ALERT FUNCTION */
// call with true for a popup window and with false for a javascript OK alert
function inboxalert(bWindow) {
        for (al = 0; al < document.links.length; al++) {
                if ( document.links[al].href.match(".boardRedirectToInboxServer|.showInBoxFolder") ) {
                        if (document.links[al].parentNode.innerHTML.match("NEW!")) {
                                x = document.links[al].parentNode.innerHTML.match("([0-9]+) NEW!")[1];
                                if (!bWindow) {
                                        alert(x + " new messages!");
                                } else {
                                        inbox = window.open("","","height=40,width=260,status=no,toolbar=no,address=no");
                                        inbox.document.write("<p style=\"font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica;\">You have " + x + " new messages...<br><a target=\"_new\" href=\"" + document.links[al].href + "\">go to ezInbox</a></p>");
                                }
                        }
                }
        }
}
/* END EZINBOX ALERT FUNCTION */
</script>

FOOTER (box #4):
 
<script type="text/javascript">
/* LAUNCH EZINBOX ALERT FUNCTION */
inboxalert(true);
/* END LAUNCH EZINBOX ALERT FUNCTION */
</script>

Use inboxalert(true) if you want to pop up a little window with a link to the inbox. Use inboxalert(false) if you just want a javascript alert.
