keeping MsgBoxes on top

Hello,

In VWD 2005, I have some code which send out confirmations before
transactions are executed. The code for such confirmations sometimes
involves MsgBox(). Sometimes, when the MsgBox code is called, the
resulting message box appears beneath the webpage. The only clue the
user has in shuch as case that they need to respond is the icon for the
message box appears in the taskbar How do I always keep message boxes
to stay on top of all other windows on the screen?

Thanks!

Thanks for the reply. I'm not using a popup... MsgBoxes are
different... I purposely don't want to use a popup because of popup
blockers. I don't see a focus property in the API for MsgBox...
please advise. Thanks!

If you're using ASP.NET you can't use the msgbox. The only way to popup
a message type box in the web environment is either your own popup type
web form or the javascript alert() method.

A question on using the PIL library. If I take a jpg file then, say, resize it and save it somewhere else, all metadata that is part of the jpg file is lost. This is a pity: digital cameras routinely add metainformation, so does, for example, Photoshop. Is there any way of keeping this info in PIL? Alternatively, is there a simple image processing package that does it? Ivan

Howdy, I have a usercontrol in my aspx page and when the page loads, I send it some property values based on the data displayed. I am sending it to a public property like below. However the usercontrol has some functions and when the function is run, I lose all of the property values. If I assign the property value to a text box, the information is not lost in the text box. I think this is by design, but how do I get around it??? ...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
