prompt message box on web page using C#

[jdkulkarni]

Exactly right. You can not pop up MessageBox.Show("") in ASP.NET. You will get this error. "Showing a modal dialog box or form when the application is not running in UserInteractive mode is not a valid operation. Specify the ServiceNotification or DefaultDesktopOnly style to display a notification from a service application.". You should only use Alert or Confirm. Especially in your case Confirm should work fine.

use the add reference and add it u can use the add reference following these steps: click on the Project in the main menu, --> go down to the add reference --> stay in the .Net tab and scroll down till you find the System.Windows.Forms --> select it and then click add now u should be able to use the message box by just writting MessageBox.show(.......) good luck

u are wrong you can use the messagebox.show follow what i wrote in the previous post(reply) and u will see how. :)

Try using this.

using System;
using System.Data;
using System.Configuration;
using System.Collections;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Security;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts;
using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls;
using System.Data;
using System.Data.Sql;
using System.Data.SqlClient;
using System.Windows.Forms;

public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page
{
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
MessageBox.Show("Hi");
}
}

Main thing is how MesageBox.Show("") will generate a dialog box at client side? MessageBox object is very specific to desktop. If you have tried the same I'll like to see that code.

hi, i haven't seen that error before, but i don't write things just to add a post to my score. I write things when i am sure that it will work. And a proof for that is what the real poster wrote that it worked with him as it worked with me several times before. see what is really giving that error. debug it and see at what line it is going

[Tamimi Code]

man jdkulkarni also metion my error !! realy i don't think so.....................

i checked that again now and it worked fine i don't know what is wrong with your code. What version of VS are you using mine is VS 2005 Look, just follow these steps: 1) create a new web application 2) go to the designer 3) add a button 4) double click the button 5) click on the project in the main menu. 6) add reference 7) in the .NET tab go to the System.Windows.Forms and click add 8) go to the source code of ur project. 9) add this name space using System.Windows.Forms 10) in the onClick event of the button write: MessageBox.Show("quiteSmart is very smart "); :) and it will work

sorry man, i don't work much on ASP, my basic work is C# but i have passed through ASP for my own knowledge only. I am not sure about the answer i will give you but i think that what u said is logic and will work. Hope u get the best out of it. Note: for next time please post the ASP questions in the ASP MessageBoard Good Luck
