var newVal = prompt("Enter new value:"); if (newVal === "") { alert("user pressed OK, but the input field was empty"); } else if (newVal) { alert("user typed something and hit OK"); } else { alert("user hit cancel");

I found this on Google, but I don't want to see the "oldVal" var oldVal = 'something'; var newVal = prompt("Enter new value:", oldVal); if (newVal === "") { alert("user pressed OK, but the input field was empty"); } else if (newVal) { alert("user typed something and hit OK"); } else { alert("user hit cancel");
