how to implement pop up window when records gets created through backend using trigger

Hi Devs,

I have requirement  which goes like this ,
There is a force.com site which inserts custom objects and then  opportunity records gets created using trigger . Now Business wants to show a pop up window (notification) to all user as soon as the opportunity records gets inserted  and that pop up should have a button for user to take ownership of that record . 
Is it implementable ? Can we notify user using pop up screen ?

Hi Sanju,

I trust you are doing very well.

You can't display an alert from a trigger. A trigger doesn't have any direct access to the user interface.
