alert messages similars to messenger service

I would like to emulate the windows messenger services popups. This is: A javascript alert message with user IP adress, date and hour. I think is necessary first to detect the user info
with PHP or ASP for example, and then display the alert message.

OK, I need to display randomly this kind of javascript alert messages:

function alertPopup1() {
alert("Message from HAPPY HOLYDAYS to 80.25.84.74 - 16/10/2003 10:15:36\n\nHello!\n\nThere is an incredible holydays offer on our page: \n\nhttp://www.happyholydays.com/\n\nEnjoy the life!");
}

I also would like to display the messages with
a random delay of 2-30 min.

Thanks a lot for your help.

All right !! thank you so much. Only a question more about this script.
How can I display the user IP, date and hour in the text of these random alert messages?

Once more, thanks.

Ok here's how u'll do it.

-----for displaying the ip of the visitor :

<script language="javascript">
var ip = ''

function ipval() {
document.myform.ipaddr.value=ip;
}
window.onload=ipval
</script>

<form method="post" action="" name="myform">
<input type="text" name="ipaddr" readonly>
</form>

in order to get this function to work your web srver must run ssi(most web servers do that by default)

---for displaying the date :

<script language="JavaScript">
HoldDate=new Date();
document.write(HoldDate.getDate() + "/" + (HoldDate.getMonth()+1) + "/" + HoldDate.getYear());
</script>

---for displaying the time :
<script type="text/javascript">
var d = new Date()
document.write(d.getHours())
document.write(":")
document.write(d.getMinutes())
document.write(":")
document.write(d.getSeconds())
</script>

I'm giving you the general code of the scripts,u r the one that should put all these together.
