Asking for confirmation before deleting records in GridView of ASP.NET 2005

[ITCraze]

Hello everyone,


I have a Gridview , whose first column is template colums which contains checkboxes , outside my GridView I a have a delete button.
So in this application,whe n the user check any checkbox ,and when click on the delete button , it should ask for the confirmation 'Are you sure you want to delete these records'.

But you Know my problem is that:

I have added the following line to page_load event:

btnDelete.Attri butes.Add["onclick"]="return confirm('Are you sure you want to delete these records')";

On running it works but it also asks for confirmation when I have not selected any of the checkboxes.

So please give me the solution ,whether I should add any javascript function for checking whether the checkbox has been checked or not.

But I don't know how to make that javacript function for checking whether the checkbox of the GridView are selected or not .Plese help me.

One one would be to use a separate event and not use the page_load. HTH.

something like this


//This will be part of your aspx /ascx file

<INPUT id="btnDelete" type="button" value="Delete" name="btnDelete "
runat="server">


function ConfirmSave(msg )
{
var confirmationval ue = confirm(msg);
}

//This will be part of your aspx.cs /ascx.cs file

private void btnDelete_Serve rClick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{


int cnt;
cnt= Grid.Items.Coun t;

for (int i=0; i<cnt; i++)
{
CheckBox chkBox = Grid.Items[i].Cells[0].Controls[1] as CheckBox;
if (chkBox.Checked )
{
ExecuteScript(t his.Page, "ConfirmSave('Y our message text');");
}
}


}


public static void ExecuteScript(P age webpage_, string script_)
{
StringBuilder scriptBuilder = new StringBuilder( @"<script language=JavaSc ript>");
scriptBuilder.A ppend(script_);
scriptBuilder.A ppend(@"</script>");
JavaScriptUtil. RegisterScript( webpage_, "2", scriptBuilder.T oString());
webpage_.Respon se.Write(script Builder.ToStrin g());

}
