Hi, I have a C# ASP.net 2.0 built on VS 2005, and the piece of code:
javascript:confirm('are you sure delete record?') on gridview at
rowDataBound - OnClientClick, works fine, it asks the user and if cancels,
does nothing... but on my machine at HOME, even when I click cancel it
deletes the records... It´s a very strange problem because to my knowledge
it´s a client feature... What can be the problem ? IE versions ?
Thanks!

Don't use the javascript: protocol when you aren't putting the
Javascript in an URL.
The event expects a return value from the code, which is used to
determine if the action should be canceled or not.
So, the correct code is:
OnClientClick="return confirm('are you sure delete record?');"

Göran, my code is the same as yours and works only on my machine at work...
Any suggestion?

Have you examined the generated code to see if there are any differences?

Incorrect syntax is your problem...
OnClientClick="return confirm('Are you sure you want to delete this
record?');"
