Hi

I'm using the detailsview web control with a command field (New, Insert,
Cancel). I added the following script to the "onclientclick" property when
the commandname is "Cancel" to prompt the user before canceling the insert
operation.

return confirm("are you sure?");

Everything works fine when I set the display style (button, image, link) of
the command field to "link". I get the pop-up dialog prompting "are you
sure?" when I click cancel. If I choose "OK" on the dialog, the cancel
operation is completed successfully.

It does not work the same way when I change the display style (button.
image, link) of the command field to "button". It displays the pop-up dialog
but nothing happens when I choose "OK" on the dialog. It is supposed to
complete the cancel operation.

Is this a bug? (It sure looks like bug when you view the generated HTML
source for cancel button)

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Hi Mahesh,

Thanks for your reply!

I have performed the testing. Actually, the problem is caused by the
difference between the LinkButton and Button. Please replace the following
statement to yours:
link.OnClientClick = "if(!confirm('Do you really want to discard the
changes?')){return false;}";

Hope this will be helpful!
