Question

I am creating HtmlButton dynamically in .cs file.
Adding it to Panel using

HtmlButton b1 = new HtmlButton();
b1.Attribute.Add("onclick","javascript:validateNclick(this.id);");
pnl.Controls.Add(b1); //pnl is Server-side <Asp:Panel>

Now how could i prevent postback of it? I had written javascript which is working in IE(No postback) but not in Mozilla Firefox (go to server-side code directly).
please help out.

Answer 1

return false to prevent postback:

b1.Attribute.Add("onclick","javascript:validateNclick(this.id);return false;");

Update:
You can also do this:

b1.Attribute.Add("onclick","javascript:return validateNclick(this.id);");  

Then in your validateNclick function, if you want to have postback, return true, if not, return false.
