My function to get an alert box on the page isn't working.
Instead it puts in the bottom section of the page:
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
This is a test// -->
</script>

The function is:
       public static void MessageAlert_Create(ref System.Web.UI.Page
thePage,
                                               Type thisType,
                                               string strMessage,
                                               string strKey)
       {
           System.Web.UI.ClientScriptManager ClientScript =
thePage.ClientScript;
           string strScript = "alert('" + strMessage + "');";
           if (!ClientScript.IsStartupScriptRegistered(thisType,
strKey))
           {
               ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(thisType, strKey,
strMessage, true);
           }
       }

and I call this function as follows:
               System.Web.UI.Page pg = this;
               Bus.UtilStatic.MessageAlert_Create(ref pg,
this.GetType(), "This is a test", "Tester");

any ideas how to get the alert box to show up?
