In this article I will explain with an example, how to display Message Boxes in
ASP.Net using
JavaScript. With the use of
JavaScript alert we can display messages on different types of events in an
ASP.Net Web Application.
This article will illustrate how to:
1. Display Message when user visits the page
2. Display Message when user submits the page
3. Display Message Box on
Button Click
Display Message Box when user visits the page
HTML Markup
Button – For displaying Alert Message Box when user visit the page.
<asp:Button ID="btnAlert" Text="Button" runat="server" OnClick="ShowAlert" />
Code Behind
Inside the
ShowAlert event handler, the
JavaScript function will be registered using the
RegisterClientScriptBlock function. The below
JavaScript function will display a greeting message to the user when the user
visits the page using
JavaScript Alert Message Box.
Note: The
JavaScript Alert function is called inside the
window.onload function so that it is displayed after the loading of the
Page in Browser.
C#
protected void ShowAlert(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string message = "Hello! Mudassar.";
System.Text.StringBuilder sb = new System.Text.StringBuilder();
sb.Append("<script type = 'text/javascript'>");
sb.Append("window.onload=function(){");
sb.Append("alert('");
sb.Append(message);
sb.Append("')};");
sb.Append("</script>");
ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptBlock(this.GetType(), "alert", sb.ToString());
}
VB.Net
Protected Sub ShowAlert(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
Dim message As String = "Hello! Mudassar."
Dim sb As New System.Text.StringBuilder()
sb.Append("<script type = 'text/javascript'>")
sb.Append("window.onload=function(){")
sb.Append("alert('")
sb.Append(message)
sb.Append("')};")
sb.Append("</script>")
ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptBlock(Me.GetType(), "alert", sb.ToString())
End Sub

user of
Notification on Form
Submission using
JavaScript Alert Message Box.
C#
protected void ShowNotification(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string message = "Your request is being processed.";
System.Text.StringBuilder sb = new System.Text.StringBuilder();
