I have a basic asp.net submit button like so:

<asp:Button ID="test" runat="server" onclick="test_Click" />

I have a javascript method that I want to run before submitting, but I cannot set it up to do so. Anyone know how? The javascript method returns true/false at the end where true = submit.

Thanks for the replies, but I have already tried what you said and it didn’t work. Here is my markup:

<asp:Button OnClientClick="return checkInput();" ID="test" runat="server" onclick="test_Click" />

The javascript method runs, but even when it returns true the page doesn’t post back.

Edit: Nevermind, there was something wrong with the javascript method.

    You need to define OnClientClick property for that.

    <asp:Button ID="test" runat="server" onclick="test_Click"
onclientclick="if(confirm('Are you sure?')) return true;" />

    replace the javascript with whatever you want to do, but the above example will only trigger your behind code sub/function [test_Click] only after the user clicks YES in the confirm dialog box
