dialog message displays on server

[Kevin]

I am rather new at Web program so I am starting off with some small stuff,
but still having problems. I want to display a message box to the user when
they click a button, but the message box displays on the server and not on
the client.
Can anyone tell me what i am doing wrong?
The command for the message box is:
MessageBox.Show("The anniversary date has been changed for all employees",
"Anniversary Date", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Information,
MessageBoxDefaultButton.Button1, MessageBoxOptions.DefaultDesktopOnly)

You can't perform a MsgBox from the server side. Did you mean to return
client-side code, e.g.

<script>
alert("Hello");
</script>

thanks, I've tried this but it is not a modal dialog and my next statement
redirects to another page. What do i need to do to make processing stop and
have the user click an OK button?

<script>
if (confirm("Continue?"))
{
location.href="newpage.asp";
}
