Hey Marco,

Run this code on its own, the alert is the one from the API pages;

[lua]–Hide the status bar
display.setStatusBar(display.HiddenStatusBar)

– Set up physics
require ( “physics” )
physics.start()
physics.setGravity( 0, 9 )

–Show a block
local block = display.newRect( 120, 50, 80, 80 )
physics.addBody(block, {bounce=0})

–Put in a static ground
local ground = display.newRect( 0, 460, 320, 20 )
physics.addBody(ground, “static”, {bounce=0})

–Alert onComplete function
local function onComplete( event )
if “clicked” == event.action then
local i = event.index
if 1 == i then
– Do nothing; dialog will simply dismiss
elseif 2 == i then
– Open URL if “Learn More” (the 2nd button) was clicked
system.openURL( “http://developer.anscamobile.com” )
end
end
end

–Collision function
local function hitGround (event)
if event.phase == “began” then
–Show alert
local alert = native.showAlert( “Corona”, “Dream. Build. Ship.”, { “OK”, “Learn More” }, onComplete )
end
end
ground:addEventListener(“collision”, hitGround)[/lua]
