By contrast, a warning message alerts users of a condition that might cause a problem in the future. Error messages can be presented using modal dialog boxes, in-place messages, notifications, or balloons. A typical modal error message.

You Are Not in Error From the alphanumerically incomprehensible to the anger-abatingly astonishing, error messages have long been the computer’s way of telling us we’ll never truly understand it. Circular logic, tiny type, and an occasional flash of unexpected humor make error messages the Zeno's paradoxes of our time--and any PC's user all-too-frequent companion.

now I'm making a list of all the shapes these messages can take in an interface. I've come up with 5 approaches and I'm thinking about where/when they're appropriate, for which types of messages and scenarios, and how they might not https://www.sitepoint.com/community/t/types-of-error-messages-and-notifications-in-web-apps/57405 be a good idea sometimes. here is my list so far: 1) the notification area used http://www.howtogeek.com/133539/6-types-of-browser-errors-while-loading-web-pages-and-what-they-mean/ accross the app, always in the same part of the interface, usually somewhere at the top. Here is an example. 2) contextual messages, for instance next to a form field that's causing the problem (see this article) 3) modal windows 4) browser dialog boxes 5) growl type of message : they pop up in one area of the screen (as opposed error message to an area of the interface), hence overlaying some of the interface. They either pop up and dissapear by themselves or they wait for the user to close them. Example here. My questions are : have you identified other forms of notifications? do you know any good online resources about this topic? how do you personally feel about browser dialog boxes in web apps? I find them terribly annoying most of the time, and I wonder if it's computer error messages just me Thanks in advance for your thoughts vigneshr35 2010-05-12 10:29:33 UTC #2 Hi, To start with, good work and a nice research. Have some questions first up : By growl type of message, you say that some part of the interface is overlayed right? Does overlay mean that no further operation can be done with that part of the interface ? Are modal window and growl type similar? If not what is the difference between them ? Is it possible to show me an example of the modal window type? Coming to the browser dialog boxes, I assume it is the 'alerts' that come up. And I agree with totally in your saying that they are particularly very annoying. Raphaelle 2010-05-12 10:58:56 UTC #3 Hi vigneshr35, I guess the big difference between growl-like messages and modal windows is that in the first case one's able to ignore the message and carry out some other task, whereas a modal window is usually more "in your face" : it's often displayed in the middle of the screen with the rest of the interface greyed out. Some modal windows let you interact with the rest of the interface but I think that's fairly rare. In both cases, the notification may overlap some of the content of the page.

This guide will help you understand exactly what each error page means and what to do when you see them. Note that each browser displays and words its error pages differently. A certificate error or malware warning looks different in each different browser, but the different types of error pages mean the same thing. Certificate Error An SSL certificate error or security certificate error indicates a problem with HTTPS encryption. You’ll only see this error when connecting to a website using HTTPS. When using HTTPS encryption, websites present certificates to identify that they are legitimate. For example, Google.com has a security certificate issued by a trusted certificate authority. The certificate authority verifies that Google is the real owner of Google.com and is entitled to the certificate. When you connect to Google.com using HTTPS, Google presents this certificate. Your browser checks that the certificate was issued by a known legitimate certificate authority to verify you’re connecting to the real Google.com, not another server pretending to be Google.com. When you see a certificate error, this indicates that you’re not necessarily connecting to the real, legitimate website. For example, if you try to access your bank’s website on a public Wi-Fi network and see this error, it’s possible that the network is compromised and someone is attempting to impersonate your bank’s website. However, it’s also possible that a website failed to properly renew or configure its certificate. Either way, you shouldn’t continue when you see this error message. Phishing and Malware Warnings Your browser will also display phishing (or “web forgery”) and malware warnings. Whether you use Firefox, Chrome, or Internet Explorer, your browser regularly downloads a list of dangerous websites. When you attempt to connect to a website on t
