Hi.
Whatever is a notification for you, you just need to trigger it on the controllers actions you want it. I know it is a vague answer, but you need to be more clear about what is your problem so I can help you better.
hi gbasto… basically i want to send a notification(a message) to a particular user where a client is created … yes i need to trigger .
when a certain event takes place i need to notify particular users that this event has taken place and unless they check the notification the message remains on their screen … its not like flash messages … its something like facebook notification in the top they have a new requests,new notifications and you have to check them … i want to develop something like that …
please send me an example or link where something like this is implemented so i can understand how to do that …
thanks a lot .

It doesn’t sound particularly complicated. Just keep a widget in your main layout view that doesn’t output anything unless notifications are available. The table fields could be as simple as:
Id
RecipientId
SenderId (nullable)
Message
Status (active | dismissed | cancelled)
Created (date)
If necessary you could periodically purge the table of inactive notifications.
If you want to be able to load the notifications dynamically, poll the server periodically and replace the notification widget content.
