eeh, hi?

I don't understand what it is you are asking for.
Please explain in simple words your current situation and your required situation.
And please use punctuation (commas, full stops, capitals etc.), it makes your post better readable and easier to understand.

Assume that
alert_button1 = OK
alert_button2 = Cancel

Now a little bit of untested code (I'm not in the mood at the moment, but - if you don't have anything better - try it):
DECLARE
   alert_btn NUMBER;
BEGIN
   ...
   IF alert_btn = alert_button2
   THEN
      CLEAR_ITEM;
   END IF;
END;

In another words: don't check <OK> because you'd go to the next item anyway. If the user presses <Cancel>, clear the current item.

NEXT_ITEM is a restricted procedure and can not be used in the WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM trigger, so - forget about it. Navigation is to be done elsewhere.
