To give a confirm pop up box within event for submit button and allow or not allow to submit
<p>I have submit button. On its click I have to check a paricular field's value from database and then give a pop up for confirmationa and then depending on yes or no allow/disallow save.How can i do so..
On using confirm JS function it passes the statement and runs the Save procedure anyway.</p>

<p>my button's event </p>

<pre><code>        protected void btnSubmit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) 
{

                    string ListExam = string.Empty;
                    DataTable dt = BussObjGoalCert.CheckPlannedStatus(custObjGoalCert);
                    if (dt.Rows.Count != 0)
                    {
                        for (int i = 0; i &lt; (dt.Rows.Count); i++)
                        {
                            ListExam = ListExam + (dt.Rows[i]["MultipleExamPlanned"]) + ";";
                        }
                        lblExamMultiple.Text = ListExam;
                        string myScript2 = "confirm('Unselected exam planned under other certification will also be unplanned.Do you wish to continue?');";
                        ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(this.GetType(), "myScript", "confirm('Unselected exam planned under other certification will also be unplanned.Do you wish to continue?');", true);

                    }
                    Result = BussObjGoalCert.InsertGoalCertification(custObjGoalCert);
}
</code></pre>

<p>SO what I am doing is checking some data from backend and then trying to conditionally call the confirm function.
It IS CALLED but then Insert statement is also run irresepective of what the person chooses.
How can the database check be done within JS function.I need to do it in code behind. and yet allow/disallow complete save.How is this to be accomplished. I am not using OnCLientCLick as suggested in the answers.</p>
