Alert user that data is updated in UI

Jyothi

Suppose 2 users logged in from 2 different locations and seeing the same data
For example 1 user updates the data and close him browser.
Whereas the second user is still in the same page with refreshing it.
How can we alert the user saying that the data you are seeing is already updated.

Hi Jyothi I got your question. Without refreshing the page, you cant do the alert msg.

I am not asking about the button click alert.

I want to alert the user immediately after the data is updated in the DB.even when user is viewing the form not at the button click event.

Is it related to SqlCacheDependency??

You can use the OnClientClick on the button for this. Add a return confirm(); to it. It will create a javascript confirm dialog, BEFORE it fires the click event. If the user presses no, it will not trigger the OnClick event.

OnClientClick="return confirm('Are you sure you want to continue?');"So, added to your button

markup, it would look like this:

<asp:Button ID="Button5" runat="server" Text="Signed" Visible="False" onclick="Button5_Click" OnClientClick="return confirm('Are you sure you want to continue?');" />
