CheckBox Question...Please Help...

[Irfan Akram]

Hi Guys,

I have these series of checkboxes. Whenever any of them are unchecked, I
want to display a warning, asking the user to confirm if he really wants to
do that. I have added an attribute, to each checkbox, which displays that
confirmation box, but I want it only displayed when the checkbox is
unchecked, not when it is checked. How can I acheive this ?

I'd appreciate valuable feedback on this.

Thanks,

Irfan

I have few questions before I answer something

Are these CheckBoxes in a grid ?

or these created OTF(On The Fly) dynamically on the form?
one solution could be,

Register client side script to the Checkbox control which will make sure
that check box has changed its state from checked to unchecked and during
this time display warning message.

Irfan,

I assume that you added an onClick event as the attribute, which would be
correct. Have the onClick call an event that checks the state of the
checkbox before doing the confirm(). Check out the example at the bottom of
this page: http://www.javascriptkit.com/jsref/checkbox.shtml#e1
