Hi Dave,
Following up on my last post, which I think was not clear, I want to
ask will the following work:

btnDelete.Attributes.Add("onClick", "return prettPrompt({
    title: "Confirm Delete",
    message: "Delete this item?",
    cancelText: "No",
    onCancel: function(){ return False; },
    okayText: "Yes",
    onOkay: function(){return True; }
  });")

So I am adding prettyPrompt as the onClick function and waiting for
the user to make a selection and then returning True or False which
will either allow the form to be submitted or prevent the submit.

Thank you very much for your patience and help.

John
