I am unable to see a dialogue box when I use the alert(); command. I use chrome. This just started..

This is the code, but no dialogue box shows up.. var dieRoll = Math.floor(Math.random() * 6)+1; alert('You rolled a ' + dieroll); I'm not sure if I checked the box that disables the dialogue box. How do I restore? Ii have been seeing the dialogue box in prior lessons.
