javascript - How to disable "prevent this page from creating additional dialogs"?

Question

I'm developing a web app that utilises JavaScript alert() and confirm() dialogue boxes.

How can I stop Chrome from showing this checkbox?

Is there a setting I can modify?

I know I could modify the source code, but I'd like it so that Chrome could still auto-update.

I don't need to worry about other browsers since the app only runs in Chrome.

I have admin access to the (Windows) machines that run the app.

You can't. It's a browser feature there to prevent sites from showing hundreds of alerts to prevent you from leaving.

You can, however, look into modal popups like jQuery UI Dialog. These are javascript alert boxes that show a custom dialog. They don't use the default alert() function and therefore, bypass the issue you're running into completely.

I've found that an apps that has a lot of message boxes and confirms has a much better user experience if you use custom dialogs instead of the default alerts and confirms.
