Confirmation box in my ASP page

[david7777777777]

I've been looking around in here and I think I've actually seen too much helpful information believe it or not. So here's all I need. This is for an ASP page talking to SQL 2000 using vbscript on the server.

I have a form and its submit button is already doing some things. I'd also like the submit button onClick to display a message box to the user asking them if they've printed this page/form yet. If they respond yes then go ahead and submit. If they respond no then I'd like the print dialog box to automatically open, or at least just keep the form active with the user-inserted dta still intact so they can print the page before submitting it. Thanks.

I don't know how to call the print page but here is another solution.

1. First change the submit button to a normal image.
2. <a href=&quot;javascript:goSubmit;&quot;><img src='submit.gif' vspace='0' hsapce='0' alt='Submit the Page' border='0'></a>

here is the javascript goSubmit function

function goSubmit{
if (confirm(&quot;Did you print the page?&quot == true)
{
document.frmMain.action = 'vieworderitem.asp;'
document.frmMain.method = 'POST';
document.frmMain.submit();
}
else
{
return;
}
}

Thank you, but I'm looking for a solution that will work with my button DTC.

<input type=&quot;Submit&quot; value=&quot;submit&quot; onclick=&quot;return printed()&quot;>



<script language=&quot;javascript&quot;>
function printed()
{
var clickok = window.confirm(&quot;Did you print yet?\n Click OK to continue. Click Cancel to stop.&quot;

if (clickok == false)
{ return false; }
else
....your code here
return true;
}

What means button DTS?

 

[durug]

Typo: DTS=DTC

Will this work if my submit button is already a DTC?

Here's the existing code for my submit button onClick event if this helps clarify what I'm trying to accomplish:

DTC is Design Time Control. It's something we beginners like to use to reduce the amount of hard coding required. Using DTC's comes at a price though; lot's of headaches.
