Browser event from webform control

[Guest]

How do I make a web form control react to a client side event in the browser
THe onclick event to server based. I am looking for onclick event on the client
I need something like this from a webform button control
<input type=button onclick="return OK()>"><script language="javascript"
function OK(

return confirm("Delete News Item. OK?")

</script
But I need the server event also.

Here's some server side code that outputs javascript similar to what you are
requesting:
myDeleteButton.Attributes.Add("onclick", _
"return confirm('Are you sure you want to delete?');")

In this example, the Delete button will post back only if the person
confirms they want to delete. Otherwise your server code is never called in
response to the button click.

Let's say your button tag looks like this:

<asp:button id="Button1" style="Z-INDEX: 103; LEFT: 62px; POSITION: absolute; TOP: 233px" runat="server"
Text="Do It"></asp:button>

Add the following line in the Page_Load procedure:

Button1.Attributes("OnClick") = "return OK();"

Hi

Since you are using a regular button ( not submit )

myBtn.Attributes.Add("onclick","confirmDel(" + iItemID + ")");

Client
function confirmDel(iItemID){
if(confirm("Delete item?")) location.replace("pageToGo.aspx?iItemID=" +
iItemID);
// Or if you want submit the form
//if(confirm("Delete item?")) document.forms[0].submit();
}

If you use submit/ image button just return true/false
function confirmDel(){
return confirm("Delete item?");
}
