[Solved] Error using RadAlert with RadAjaxManger

[James]

I am getting an error when attempting to show a RadAlert in an Ajaxified control's Try/Catch block.
Here is the code from the page:

    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <telerik:RadScriptManager ID="RadScriptManager1" runat="server">
    </telerik:RadScriptManager>
    <telerik:RadAjaxManager ID="RadAjaxManager1" runat="server">
        <AjaxSettings>
            <telerik:AjaxSetting AjaxControlID="LinkButton1">
                <UpdatedControls>
                    <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="RadAjaxPanel1"
                        LoadingPanelID="RadAjaxLoadingPanel1" />
                </UpdatedControls>
            </telerik:AjaxSetting>
        </AjaxSettings>
    </telerik:RadAjaxManager>
    <telerik:RadAjaxLoadingPanel ID="RadAjaxLoadingPanel1" runat="server" Height="75px"
        Width="75px">
        <img alt="Loading..." src='<%= RadAjaxLoadingPanel.GetWebResourceUrl(Page, "Telerik.Web.UI.Skins.Default.Ajax.loading.gif") %>'
            style="border: 0px;" />
    </telerik:RadAjaxLoadingPanel>
    <telerik:RadWindowManager ID="RadWindowManager1" runat="server">
    </telerik:RadWindowManager>
    <div id="left" style="float:left;width:200px">
        <center>
            <h3>Menu</h3>
            <ul>
                <li>
                    <asp:LinkButton ID="LinkButton1" runat="server">Test RadAlert in Ajax</asp:LinkButton>
                </li>
            </ul>
        </center>
    </div>
    <div id="content" style="float:left;width:800px">
        <telerik:RadAjaxPanel ID="RadAjaxPanel1" runat="server" Height="200px" Width="800px">
            <asp:Label ID="lblMessage" runat="server">Main Page</asp:Label>
        </telerik:RadAjaxPanel>
    </div>
    </form>

Here is the code behind for the button:

    Private Sub LinkButton1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles LinkButton1.Click
        Try
            System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(3000)
            Throw New Exception("Test of Rad Alert in Ajax")
            Me.lblMessage.Text = "Label value changed on click of Link Button"
        Catch ex As Exception
            'Me.RadAjaxManager1.ResponseScripts.Add("radalert('" & ex.Message & "', 330, 210);")
            'Me.RadAjaxManager1.ResponseScripts.Add("Sys.Application.add_load(function() { var f = function() { radalert('" & ex.Message & "', 330, 210, 'Test RadAlert'); Sys.Application.remove_load(f);};Sys.Application.add_load(f);})()")
            Me.RadAjaxManager1.ResponseScripts.Add("(function(){var f = function() { radalert('" & ex.Message & "', 330, 210, 'Test RadAlert');Sys.Application.remove_load(f);}; Sys.Application.add_load(f);})()")
        End Try
    End Sub

 As you can see I have tried several ways to show the RadAlert based on threads I found on the Telerik site.  I get the following error on the first attempt to show the RadAlert, i.e. the active code.
Error message dialog box:  htmlfile: Unspecified error
With the following code hightlighted.  The line that says "_46.SetActive();" is the line of code that is highlighted.

if(_46&&_46.focus){
window.setTimeout(function(){
if(_46.setActive){
_46.setActive();
}else{
_46.focus();
}
},0);
}

The second choice in the Catch from the codebehind produces this error: Microsoft JScript runtime error: Object expected.

The first choice produces the exact same error as the 3rd choice.

Thanks in advance for your help with this issue!
