Hi

We have a requirement to add the alert message which is more than 2000 characters. When we tried to add the message, it is not showing all the information in the alert. 

 

May I know is there character limit for that and can any one help me in achieving this.

 

Thanks in Advance!

 

Thanks,

Bhavani.

Are you expecting user to read those 2000 characters in an alert?

Not a good user experience.

you can show UI page and use <p> tag to show the details rather than alert box
