WKWebView - Javascript Confirm and Alert not working

You also need to set the uiDelegate on the WKWebView.

import UIKit
import WebKit

class ViewController: UIViewController, WKUIDelegate, WKNavigationDelegate {

    var wkWebView: WKWebView!

    public override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()

        wkWebView = WKWebView(frame: view.bounds, configuration: WKWebViewConfiguration())
        wkWebView.uiDelegate = self
        wkWebView.navigationDelegate = self
        view.addSubview(wkWebView!)
        let url = URL(string: "https://www.w3schools.com/jsref/tryit.asp?filename=tryjsref_alert")!
        wkWebView.load(URLRequest(url: url))
    }

    func webView(_ webView: WKWebView,
                 runJavaScriptAlertPanelWithMessage message: String,
                 initiatedByFrame frame: WKFrameInfo,
                 completionHandler: @escaping () -> Void) {

        let alert = UIAlertController(title: nil, message: message, preferredStyle: .alert)
        let title = NSLocalizedString("OK", comment: "OK Button")
        let ok = UIAlertAction(title: title, style: .default) { (action: UIAlertAction) -> Void in
            alert.dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)
        }
        alert.addAction(ok)
        present(alert, animated: true)
        completionHandler()
    }

    func webView(_ webView: WKWebView, didFinish navigation: WKNavigation!) {
        wkWebView.evaluateJavaScript("alert('Hello from evaluateJavascript()')", completionHandler: nil)
    }
}

For confirm() and prompt() see the other delegate methods.

A little late but I would like to add my experience for future reference. The answer of @Bon Bon brought me on the path to the solution while I was trying to make things work with Swift 3 and IOS 10, in which case the code needs some modifications. Firstly you need to implement also WKUIDelegate, so add it to the ViewController declaration:

class ViewController: UIViewController, WKUIDelegate {

Then when you instantiate the WKWebView object, as for example like so:

self.webView = WKWebView(frame: self.view.frame)

you need also to assign the correct value to the uiDelegate property of the instance:

self.webView?.uiDelegate = self

Then finally you can use the code provided by @Bon Bon, but note that there are some little differences required by Swift 3, as for example, the name of the presentViewController method becomes present :

func webView(_ webView: WKWebView, runJavaScriptAlertPanelWithMessage message: String, initiatedByFrame frame: WKFrameInfo, completionHandler: @escaping () -> Void) {

    let alertController = UIAlertController(title: nil, message: message, preferredStyle: .actionSheet)

    alertController.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Ok", style: .default, handler: { (action) in
        completionHandler()
    }))

    self.present(alertController, animated: true, completion: nil)
}

func webView(_ webView: WKWebView, runJavaScriptConfirmPanelWithMessage message: String, initiatedByFrame frame: WKFrameInfo, completionHandler: @escaping (Bool) -> Void) {

    let alertController = UIAlertController(title: nil, message: message, preferredStyle: .actionSheet)

    alertController.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Ok", style: .default, handler: { (action) in
        completionHandler(true)
    }))

    alertController.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Cancel", style: .default, handler: { (action) in
        completionHandler(false)
    }))

    self.present(alertController, animated: true, completion: nil)
}

func webView(_ webView: WKWebView, runJavaScriptTextInputPanelWithPrompt prompt: String, defaultText: String?, initiatedByFrame frame: WKFrameInfo, completionHandler: @escaping (String?) -> Void) {

    let alertController = UIAlertController(title: nil, message: prompt, preferredStyle: .alert)

    alertController.addTextField { (textField) in
        textField.text = defaultText
    }

    alertController.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Ok", style: .default, handler: { (action) in
        if let text = alertController.textFields?.first?.text {
            completionHandler(text)
        } else {
            completionHandler(defaultText)
        }

    }))

    alertController.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Cancel", style: .default, handler: { (action) in

        completionHandler(nil)

    }))

    self.present(alertController, animated: true, completion: nil)
}

That made alert, confirmation and text input to work correctly within WKWebView, without any compiler warning in Xcode 8. I'm not an expert Swift programmer, so any useful comment about correctness of the code would be very appreciated.
