OnClientClick Eval confirmation message

I needed to add a parameter to the delete confirmation message I added to OnClientClick, but Eval(“Name”, “abc {0}”) does not appear to work in VB.Net, so I went old school and used DataBinder.Eval.  I know it’s fallen out of favor, but it WORKS!

 

<asp:TemplateField>

    <ItemTemplate>

        <asp:ImageButton ID="delete" runat="server" OnClientClick='<%#  DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Name", "return confirm(""Are you sure you want to delete [{0}] ?"");")  %>'

            CommandName="Delete" AlternateText="Delete" ImageUrl="~/images/delete.gif" />

    </ItemTemplate>

</asp:TemplateField>
