Using VBC, I compiled the above into 'Confirm.dll'. This is how I am
using the above custom control in an ASPX page (assume that the ASPX
page is named Confirm.aspx):
<%@dotnet.itags.org. Register Assembly="Confirm" Namespace="Confirm" TagPrefix="CC" %>
<form EnableViewState="true" runat="server">
<CC:ShowConfirm ID="ShowConfirm1" ConfirmMessage="WANNA EXIT?"
Text="EXIT" runat="server"/>
</form>
Note the
Output.Write("location.href = window.location.href + '?Proceed=' +
answer")
line in the VB class file code. When the ASPX page gets rendered, it
displays a Button. Conventionally, when a Button is clicked in an ASPX
page, it posts back to itself using the POST method. When the Button in
the above custom control is clicked, a JavaScript confirm dialog
pops-up with 2 buttons - 'OK' & 'Cancel'. If 'OK' is clicked, the value
of the JavaScript variable 'answer' is true & if 'Cancel' is clicked,
the value of the variable 'answer' is false.
What I want is irrespective of whether a user clicks the 'OK' or
'Cancel' button in the confirm dialog, instead of posting back to
itself using the conventional POST method, I want the ASPX page to post
to itself BUT with a querystring 'Proceed=<value>' appended i.e. I want
to suppress the conventional post & instead add the querystring so that
I can find out whether the user has clicked the 'OK' button or the
'Cancel' button in the confirm dialog. If the user clicks 'OK', he will
be taken to
http://myserver/aspx/Confirm.aspx?Proceed=true
If the user clicks 'Cancel' in the confirm dialog, he will be taken to
http://myserver/aspx/Confirm.aspx?Proceed=false
Can this be done in anyway?Anyone?
