    You should look into notifications such as jGrowl. The site has some samples to help you get going 🙂

    EDIT

    How will you be storing notifications? Within a DB? I will get back to you later – My lunch break is over for now 🙁

    EDIT 2

    Here is a basic example of how to get it working with php by declaring an array of messages which you could easily populate from a database. You could make this more advanced by using the other options offered by jGrowl such as stickies etc by using a multidimentional array to store such options and outputting the correct javascript.

    <?php

$messages = array("This is a message", "And this is another", "etc...");

?>
