Hi there,

I have been struggling with this a while now. The scenario is that I am in a view controllers (and sometimes other views). I want to display a simple message for the web user, like a messagebox used in Forms. All the answers/solutions from DevExpress states to use a view controller and specify the message for the different buttons you want to use. And then using this you create typeof each time passing the value in. This is waaaaaaay overkill for me. :wtf:

I literally just want to display a simple message notification that something happened in different views and with different messages (Like a messagebox in winforms). :doh:

I am currently using UserFriendlyException. The problem with this is (logic) a negative message etc. and it is a EXCEPTION. So it stops right there and breaks out of the code. :confused:

Any help will be appreciated. :rolleyes:

Solution 1

I solved it myself :doh:

The solution is to use a script for those wondering...

C#

WebWindow.CurrentRequestWindow.RegisterClientScript("ShowAlert", @"alert('message here');");
