client side messagebox?

[Netnoobie]

Ive done the messageboxes when a button is clicked, but this is different. In my back end I am doing validations and when I come across an error I want to display a messagebox. How can this be done? Id think there has to be a way to go into a sub and raise an error on the client side.

Has anyone done this yet?
Thanks!

Ah, how about when I come across an error I refresh the page with an item in the URL and do a check when loading the page inthe HTML portion? If the item is there then raise error?

Just trying to think of something.

If youre using Validation Controls then you can use the Validation Summary control.

Otherwise, you can try and rig it with some Java or VB script when the page is first loaded in the web browser.
