Message Box for Web-Application

[=?Utf-8?B?R3JlZw==?=]

Is there an equivelant message box (such as in a Windows Application) I can
use for a Web Application? I've found some examples of JavaScript message
boxes, but I would rather use something that's built in instead, such as
messagebox.show (used in VB.Net), if it exists?

I'd like to be able to respond to Yes, No, Cancel, etc events as well and
have it shown in Modal as well.

If there isn't, does anyone know of a simple way to achieve it?

You understand that asp.net.....at the end of the day.....is just a very
fancy (and very nice) way to push html (and optionally javascript code) to
the browser.

There is no such thing as MessageBox.Show on web application.
(I'm speaking in general terms here, for you nay sayers....)

Silverlight one of the things that allows C# code to run inside the browser,
but I'm fairly certain that isn't what you're asking.

..........

At the end of the day, the browser is going to be sent html/javascript code
that is displayed (or ran) on the browser.

............... .....

Check telerik.com if you want "very nice" messages boxes already done for
you. (This cost$, fyi).

There is nothing like that in asp.net , you can use the simplest
form , an Alert . For something fancier you can implement your own (or
find one). You could for example similuate it by using a DIV centered,
the rest of the page will be unavailable using a silk control? (I do
no really remember the name of the control) Then you can create the
buttons you need as well as handle the clicks as you want back in the
server.

I'm pretty sure something like this should exist already.

This, plus the related return() method which supports basic Yes/No
functionality, handles pretty much everything needed in ASP.NET
