url: "Test.aspx/SendMessage",
data: "{'toMailAddress':'" + val + "','rno':'" + rno+ "', 'nonrno':'" + nonrno+ "'}",

dataType: "json",
success: function (response) {
var val1 = response.d;
alert(val1);
if (val1 == "1") {
// Below code is used to close the window, if message has been sent to the user sucessfully.
var windowObj = window.self;

The alert not showing up could be caused by the fact that you are closing the window right after trying to display the alert. Try:

success: function (response) {
       var val1 = response.d;
       alert(val1);
       if (val1 == "1") {
        
         //var windowObj = window.self;
         //windowObj.opener = window.self;
         //windowObj.close();
       }
    },

As for it not working in Safari, I might look at the contentType option, it's possible utf-8 is causing grief.

Also, maybe think about using jQuery's $.post() function instead of $.ajax() directly. $.post() is a wrapper for what you are trying to do with $.ajax() and may have defaults set that work in Safari.
