Fire a Yes/No MessageBox from DropDownList OnPreRender

[Iamthestig]

Hi,

I'm not sure if this can be done.
I am using ASP.Net 2.0 / VS 2008

I have a page with a dropdownlist of user names. When the list is clicked (or before a user name is changed) I want to display a messagebox reminding the user to Save the current Page. Like: "Have you saved this page?" With Yes No buttons. Then cancel the dropdownlist from changing if they click No.
I can do this with a button, can it be done with a dropdownlist?

Many thanks.

yes, you need to preform this on the client using js. for more assistance with js use forum216. There are alot of web devs who swear by jquery. You may want to look into this as well.
