First, you should generate and test your HTML as HTML - then incorporate it into your exe. If you're working on the web, however, you'd be well advised to learn javascript and php. They're designed for it and make many things extra easy.

As for your alert - these are text-only items in general. Not even HTML text, but more like regular text (newline character is not <br> !) Now there could be variations across languages, but don't kill yourself getting around something like this.

What to do? Again, from an HTML point of view, create a <div> that you populate with your values and controls. It can be hidden or visible, and that will give you that alert() type appearance, toggling it's visibility attribute (or style). If in other languages, it could be an another window (MDI). The updating process will look really nice if you use AJAX for the button-click removals.

This is also better in that you can now user readable fonts.
