JavaScript: Confirm User Action Script

Code:

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
    function ConfirmDeleteSomething() {
        return confirm("Warning: This Something will be permanently deleted. Would you still like to continue? ");
    }



<asp:LinkButton ID="lbtnDelete" runat="server" 
    OnClick="lbtnDelete_Click"
    CausesValidation="false"
    OnClientClick="return ConfirmDeleteSomething()">Delete Something

Summary:

To make sure that a user is actually sure they want to perform an unrecoverable action, such as deleting something, you may want to add a confirmation dialog warning the user of what their potential actions may do.

To do this using JavaScript simply add a function which calls the ‘confirm’ command and call that function through the ‘OnClientClick’ event of your button control in ASP.net.
