Calling a script from code behind not working..

I have some code behind that I am trying to call javascript with on the client side. Everything seems to work fine except when I try and introduce a \n into the messagebox text. I have tried single and double quotes in the script line, but if I put anything in there to do with \n \r environmene.newline or anything it does not fire. I can however place random text and it does work.

protected void btnGeneratePDF_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Page.Validate("TransValidation");
            if (Page.IsValid)
            {
                stamp_PDF(true);
                create_PDF();
            }
            else
            {
                string msg = "";
                foreach (IValidator aValidator in this.Validators)
                {
                    if (!aValidator.IsValid)
                    {
                        msg += aValidator.ErrorMessage + "\n"; //Adding new line for each validator?
                    }
                }
                msgBox_error(msg);
            }
        }

        public void msgBox_error(String message)
        {
            Label msgBox = new Label();
            String msg = message;
            msgBox.Text = "<" + "script language='javascript'>" + Environment.NewLine + "window.alert(\"" + msg + "\") </" + "script>";
            Page.Controls.Add(msgBox);
        }

Thoughts?

Re: Calling a script from code behind not working..

When we do a \n or \r, we need to escape it in C# so do that like this:

\n = \\n

\r = \\r

Thank you, I had thought the \ was the escape, but i guess that is part of the character.

Correct :)
