Hello friends,

I'm New to jQuery/

In my asp.net page I have

C#

<asp:Button ID="btn" runat="server" Text="Button" OnClick="btn_Click"/>
protected void btn_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Response.Write(DateTime.Now.ToString());
}

and in jquery

C#

$(document).ready(function () {
    $("#btn").click(function (e) {
        e.preventDefault();
        if (confirm("Hello World!!")) {
            $("#btn").click();
        }
    });
});

I want to make post back if user press yes on confirm dialog.
How can I implement this?
Yes I'm doing something wrong in the above code.
Or is there any other way I can accomplish this?

Thanks and Regards

The ID value of a control with runat="server" is for server side programming only. If you need to get at the client side ID of the container control you'll have to do something like this:

ASP

var buttonIDSelector = "#<%= btn.ClientID %>";
$(document).ready(function () {
    $(buttonIDSelector).click(function (e) {
        e.preventDefault();
        if (confirm("Hello World!!")) {
            $(buttonIDSelector).click();
        }
    });
});

Cheers!

Here I got the solution.

C#

$(document).ready(function () {
    $("#btn").click(function (e) {
        if (!confirm("Hello World!!")) {
        e.preventDefault();
        }
    });
});
