Do you think that's the problem? Any ideas how to get this right-click left-click Input box...

I have created a web control that can be rendered as either a linkbutton or a button. It is a ConfirmButton control that allows a developer to force a user to confirm if they intended to click it such as when they do a delete. Everything is great. By and large it will be used in my repeater controls using the command event when the user clicks on it and so that event is working great. My issue is the Click event. When the control is...
