Dynamically Creating a popup window without jquery

Question

I need to create a popup window that shows an error stored in a string variable from the code behind of an ASP site without using Jquery or Ajax. How can I make this work? I believe it has to do with ScriptManager but I am unsure...

Use RegisterStartupScript

string errorMessageString = "Error Here";
ScriptManager.RegisterStartupScript(this, this.GetType(), "UniqeKey", string.format("alert('{0}');", errorMessageString), true);

I am inside a static function, so I can't use "this" sadly – Al Woods Jul 08 '14 at 18:39

You can use PopUpControl in an ASP.net AJAX extender. Below should help

<ajaxToolkit:PopupControlExtender ID="PopEx" runat="server"  
TargetControlID="DateTextBox"  
PopupControlID="Panel1"  
Position="Bottom" />

What I ended up doing is writing a function that has an error message returned from sql as an out statement, and then using ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript instead of the ScriptManager.

ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(GetType(), "failed", string.Format("alert({0});", AntiXss.JavaScriptEncode(error)), true);
