show server side error messages

[Vlad]

I would like to show an error message to user
when input validation fails on server side but
keep user on the same input screen with all
values he entered preserved. I know how it is done
using regular approach without Telerik controls. I can inject
javascript which will show DIV styled as a message box
with OK button and on top of other page layers. (kind of lightbox)

I just would like to know if Telerik has built in support for error message display
before I implement a custom error messaging like that.

Thank you.

Hi Vlad,

You may consider utilizing our RadWindow or RadNotification components for this purpose. They both can serve the purpose you described. Review their live demos illustrating sample use cases for more info.

Thank you for quick reply.

How radnotifications are implemented, are they DIVs or windows ? I am  worried about popup blockers because
want to be sure that error messages are shown no matter what.

Hi Vlad,

The RadNotification control uses divs for its rendering - you can confirm that by inspecting the rendered html of the page where it is displayed.
