Getting a gridview's row index on command

[David Lozzi]

Howdy,

I have a gridview with a linkbutton in a template column (code is below).
When the linkbutton is clicked i want to display a little confirm right in
the gridview to confirm deleting the row. I tried using the following to
grab the index, which appears to work on command columns, but not with
buttons in a template? is this true? or am i missing something. how do I get
the row index? Its returning the ID of the record, not the index of the row.
THANKS!
