Pop up on successfully updated database PHP

Question

i am developing database driven web application. I want to show a pop up when MySql query runs successfully. for example

when my database is successfully updated

$result = mysql_query("DELETE FROM students WHERE Roll_No = '$rollno'") or die("SELECT Error: ".mysql_error());
$student_info = mysql_fetch_row($result);


if($result) 
{
    echo "<script> alert('Deleted successfully!')<script>";
        exit;

}
else
{    
echo "<script> alert('Temporary problem, try again!');</script>";
}
?>

it is working fine for me and shows simple JavaScript alert in browser. i want a fancy pop up in the middle of the browser fading the background and auto close after showing the alert say after 10 second. I know it can be done by JavaScript but i don't have enough knowledge of JavaScript, Kindly guide me in the direction so that i can do it or if someone explains me with any example will be great help for me.

Please stop using mysql_* functions. These extensions have been removed in PHP 7. Learn about prepared statements for PDO and MySQLi and consider using PDO, it's really pretty easy. — Jay Blanchard

instead of alerting, insert some html and javascript. inside javascript use setTimeout to to hide/fadeout the fancy html box after set time of seconds. — Abdul Rehman

You can use jQuery for this purpose and design it to your liking.

$(function() {
    $( "#dialog-message" ).dialog({
      modal: true,
      autoOpen: false,
      buttons: {
        Ok: function() {
          $( this ).dialog( "close" );
        });
