Confirmation of delete

[Angela]

Hi,

Can't seem to find the answer to this on any posts.

I want the javascript confirmation of delete to occur on my datalist for
the 'delete' linkbutton. The code below works fine for the delete, but
it somehow gets fired off when 'edit' linkbutton is clicked on. Which i
don't understand.
I have the following code:

Private Sub dlstAddress_ItemCreated(ByVal s As Object, ByVal e As
DataListItemEventArgs) Handles dlstAddress.ItemCreated

If e.Item.ItemType <> ListItemType.Header And e.Item.ItemType <>
ListItemType.Footer Then

Dim linkDelete As LinkButton =
CType(e.Item.FindControl("LinkDelete"), LinkButton)

linkDelete.Attributes.Add("onclick", "return confirm('Are
you sure you want to delete selected item?');")
End If

End Sub
Thanks in advance

view source and check if the onclick attribute is also added for Edit link.
i think it could happen if you have named Edit link as LinkDelete..otherwise
i cant think of any other err..
