postback and navigate question

Alejandro Penate-Diaz

Hi. I need to ask the user whether to save the information on a page to a
sql server when exiting or navigating away, so I am using this code when
clicking the X button. the Button8 does that when clicked so I am reusing
it:

function HandleOnClose()

{

if (event.clientY < 0)

if (confirm("OK to save changes. Cancel to exit without saving.") )
__doPostBack('Button8','')

}

The code above works fine, problem comes with the following code that I am
using when the user clicks a link to another page, code
__doPostBack('Button8','') is never executed. is there a simple work around
for what I want to do?:

function goToAnotherPage()

{

if (confirm("OK to save changes. Cancel to show Another Page without
saving.") ) __doPostBack('Button8','');

window.navigate("another_page.aspx");

}

Hi. I need to ask the user whether to save the information on a page to a
sql server when exiting or navigating away, so I am using this code when
clicking the X button. the Button8 (an asp.net server control) does
that(save to database) when clicked so I am reusing
it in my javascript:

//this code is launched in the OnBeforeUnload event in the <body> section
function HandleOnClose()

{

if (event.clientY < 0)

if (confirm("OK to save changes. Cancel to exit without saving.") )
__doPostBack('Button8','')

}

The code above works fine, problem comes with the following code that I am
using when the user clicks a link to another page, code
__doPostBack('Button8','') is never executed. is there a simple work around
for what I want to do?:
// this code is launched when clickin in my page's links
function goToAnotherPage()

{

if (confirm("OK to save changes. Cancel to show Another Page without
saving.") ) __doPostBack('Button8','');

window.navigate("another_page.aspx");
