Preventing a modal dialog from doign a postback

Hi all,

I have a situation where I'm using a modal dialog to merely show the user
some data. Once the user has finished, there is only one button to click to
return to the previous (parent) page but a postback is done. The modal
dialog is invoked from a linkbutton on the parent.

How can I prevent this unnecessary postback?

Regards
John.

This works very well except for the annoying fact that the dialog window always returns to its initial position when the user posts back (by clicking a button, etc.) I have all of the fundamentals for asp.net modal dialogs in place, such as using <base target="_self"> in the header...

Hi There, I have a user control with buttons on it which I use on a aspx page (parent page).

Hi! I'm working on a web application in Asp.net and what I would like to have is a cross borwser modal dialog which accepts user's input. I would like to catch what the user clicked on the dialog. To be more specific I want to have a confirmation dialog that is shown when a user clicks on a Delete button (which deletes some values from database). If Yes is pressed the delete action is processed otherwise modal dialog is closed.

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
