Symptoms

There are three buttons in the alert ('YES' 'NO' and 'CANCEL')
After pressing the X button, the code for the third button is fired.
For ex: suppose the code under the button is as follows:

DECLARE
al_id Alert;
al_button NUMBER;
BEGIN
al_id := Find_Alert('alert2');
IF Id_Null(al_id) THEN
Message(' alert does not exist');
RAISE Form_Trigger_Failure;
ELSE
al_button := Show_Alert(al_id);
IF al_button = ALERT_BUTTON3 THEN
MESSAGE('ALERT BUTTON 3');
MESSAGE(' ');
END IF;
END IF;
END;

When pressing the 'X' button of the alert, the form shows the message
'alert button 3' even if the third button ('cancel') is not pressed.
