Passing additional arguments into the OnClick event handler of a LinkButton using Javascript
- by Jens Ameskamp
Hi!
I have a ASP.NET Website, where, in a GridView item template, automatically populated by a LinqDataSource, there is a LinkButton defined as follows:
<asp:LinkButton ID="RemoveLinkButton" runat="server" CommandName="Remove"
CommandArgument='<%# DataBinder.GetPropertyValue(GetDataItem(), "Id")%>'
OnCommand="removeVeto_OnClick"
OnClientClick='return confirm("Are you sure?");'
Text="Remove Entry" />
This works fine. Whenever the Button is Clicked, a confirmation dialog is displayed.
What I am trying to do now, is to allow the user to enter a reason for the removal, and pass this on the the OnClick event handler. How would I do this?
I tried OnClientClick='return prompt("Enter your reason!");', but, of course, that did not work =)
