Hi, I have a C# ASP.net 2.0 built on VS 2005, and the piece of code: 
javascript:confirm('are you sure delete record?') on gridview at 
rowDataBound - OnClientClick, works fine, it asks the user and if cancels, 
does nothing... but on my machine at HOME, even when I click cancel it 
deletes the records... Its a very strange problem because to my knowledge 
its a client feature... What can be the problem ? IE versions ?

Thanks!

on my work machine works well, but on my home machine doesnt... both are XP 
PRO SP 2

Don't use the javascript: protocol when you aren't putting the 
Javascript in an URL.

The event expects a return value from the code, which is used to 
determine if the action should be canceled or not.

So, the correct code is:

OnClientClick="return confirm('are you sure delete record?');"

Gran, my code is the same as yours and works only on my machine at work... 
Any suggestion?

Incorrect syntax is your problem...

OnClientClick="return confirm('Are you sure you want to delete this 
record?');"

Have you examined the generated code to see if there are any differences?
