Confirm delete alert – needs 2b specific to delete button

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:

I have an alert button to confirm deletion of a record but it comes into action when any button on the form is pressed (because the code that calls the function is in the form tag) how can I alter the code so that it only appears when the delete button is pressed???

Cheers

onclick="return confirm('Are you sure?');"

@FunkymonkeyauthorAug 11.2005 — Hia I already tried that the problem is that my button is not just a HTML button it is as asp:button.

Error is 'return' is not a member of 'ASP.deletefaq_aspx'

The problem is that asp and JS don't seem to be compatitble, probably as one is server-side and the other is client-side.

Any ideas on solving this problem?
