I need to display a message to a user after successfully creating a login. I want it to be a normal windows message and not some information on a web page. How do I do that?

Hallo ,

Try using:

loc:alert = 'Hallo! this is an alert!'

Regards,
Robert

Robert,

It looks like that won't work - according to the manual: "Set if a field is invalid. Text will be sent to the browser for display as an error."

But I will try it anyway.
Thanks

Thys,

I'd use p_web.jQuery(" .. in here put a call to jquery's popup") .. OR .. handcode in the javascript: alert("message");
Cheers,

Stu Andrews

Hi Thys,

I'm intrigued by this line;
"I want it to be a normal windows message and not some information on a web page."

Given that the browser could be on any OS - indeed on any device, the reference to a "windows message" is somewhat misleading I think.
I presume by "windows message" you mean you want a "popup dialog window"?
something like;

p_web.Script('alert("hello bruce");')

?

Cheers
Bruce

How many wonderfull p_web.script methods there are? Until now, I'be seen two (reload and this one, alert). Will you reveal this valuable info in some doc? I'm unable at this very moment of unload the price of the nettalk book. Some time in the future I will, but for the moment would be very nice to have at least a list of the methods and implementation definition. Is that possible¿
Thanks
Jorge

p_web.Script(...

This is just one method, what you put in it is up to you, the code inside the () is JavaScript, so you can put any JavaScript you like in there.

I hope this helps explain it better.

Cheers

Mark

Hi Jorge,

As Mark says the Script method allows you to embed JavaScript in the response. It works in both page-request, and Ajax (asyncronous request) mode.

So,
Alert('Hello Bruce');
Is a valid line of JavaScript.

To learn JavaScript just use the web. There are endless resources online.

cheers
Bruce

Hi Bruce,

I was either a popup message ("windows message") to display the result, or a simple piece of text on a page to show that the action was completed successfully. Both are adequate for the purpose.

I agree that "windows message" is misleading - "popup message" might be better descriptive.

Thanks

Just one thing to note with regards to alert('xxxxxx') is that some browsers offer to not show those messages. I think Google Chrome is one of them.
