JScript - General - Question - Confirm - pop up box

I have an application where I am trying to get my "confirm" message box to work. The scenario is: User brings up a page showing a crystal report and click the button to save the report to file. If report already exists I need to show a message box to confirm that user wants to replace:

Code:

Public Overloads Sub MsgBox_Confirm(ByVal Message As String) 'Confirm
        Page.ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(Me.GetType  (), "Confirmation", "Confirmation();", True)
End Sub

Code:

Protected Sub btnConfirm_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) 
...action code goes here ....       
End Sub

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
function Confirmation()
{
         if(confirm("Daily Sales Report already exists. Do you want to replace it ?")== true)
        {
         //Calling the server side code after confirmation from the user
          document.getElementById("btnConfirm").click();
          }
}
</script>

The message box is being shown, however, when I click OK, then the program does not execute the btnConfirm. Can someone tell what I am doing wrong?

}

Sorry i don't get if the program gives a alert box (one with only one option which is the ok button) or an option of 2 buttons a ok and a cancel?

It might be me being stupid!

Yes, I have very little expereinece with js as well including how to fire server side event based upon a cklient click event.

Here is the code I'm working on right now but I cannot get the btnConfirm_Click to fire:

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
function Confirmation()
{
if(confirm("Daily Sales Report already exists. Do you want to replace it ?")== true)
{
//Calling the server side code after confirmation from the user
__doPostBack('btnConfirm',''); 
}
}
</script>

<asp:Button ID="btnConfirm" OnClientClick="return Confirmation();" runat="server" style="display: none" Text="Confirm" OnClick="btnConfirm_Click" />

Code:

Protected Sub btnConfirm_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
        Dim Response As String
        Response = "Response is OK"
End Sub

your not declaring the name of the confirm box

you need to have something like this

Code:

var r=confirm("Daily Sales Report already exists. Do you want to replace it ?");

then you do the check like this

Code:

if (r==true)
  {
//just call a procedure
  }
else
  {
  //call a different procedure
  }

i hope this helps and this is really limiting my knowleadge!
