do JS 'Confirm' for Button web control

P

Paul W

On my page I have a 'Delete Record' web control (with code behind). How can
I issue a JS confirm('Are you sure you want to delete?') and cancel the
postback (and button event) if the user clicks 'No'?

I know I can do
myBtn.Attributes.Add("onclick", "confirm('are you sure..')") but how can
I cancel it?

Thanks,

Paul.

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.
