You can execute a line of code like this when you want a message box to be
displayed.
(This writes out the necessary client side javascript to your HTML page to
make the alert pop up as soon as the page is sent to their browser.)

RegisterStartup Script("startup Script", "<script
language=JavaSc ript>alert('Thi s is my message.');</script>");

Here's more info:

Here are a couple controls you might find to be useful:

Hello,

Let me be more clear about my problem.

I have a dropdownlist server control. I have written SelectedIndexCh ange
method for this. Now I also need to write a javascript function which
has a confirmation message in it for the same SelectedIndexCh ange
method.

I wrote it like this
mDrpCounties.At tributes.Add("o nchange", "CheckAlert();" )

I noticed one thing here..The first time when the selectedIndexCh ange
method is called the javascript doesn't fire. but the second time when
its done, javascript fires.

Why is that??? Can you tell me??

I tried to do RegisterStartup Script,Register ClientScriptBlo ck but
nothing is working.

Thanks
MBhat
