Although many of these answers will work  this shows a straightforward example when using CommandField in GridView using the OnClientClick property   ASPX        lt asp GridView ID  GridView1  runat  server  AutoGenerateColumns  false  OnRowDataBound  OnRowDataBound      gt   lt Columns gt   lt  -- Data columns here -- gt           lt asp CommandField ButtonType  Button  ShowEditButton  true  ShowDeleteButton  true  ItemStyle-Width  150    gt   lt  Columns gt   lt  asp GridView gt    ASPX CS   protected void OnRowDataBound object sender  GridViewRowEventArgs e        if  e Row RowType    DataControlRowType DataRow  amp  amp  e Row RowIndex    GridView1 EditIndex                 e Row Cells 2  Controls 2  as Button  OnClientClick    return confirm  Do you want to delete this row

If your Gridview used with AutoGenerateDeleteButton  true    you may convert it to LinkButton    Click GridView Tasks and then Edit Columns    Select Delete in Selected fields  and click on Convert this field into a TemplateField       Then click OK    Now your LinkButton will be generated  You can add OnClientClick event to the LinkButton like this  OnClientClick  return confirm  Are you sure you want to delete

This is my method and it works perfectly   asp      lt asp CommandField ButtonType  Link  ShowEditButton  true  ShowDeleteButton  true  ItemStyle-Width  5   HeaderStyle-Width  5   HeaderStyle-CssClass  color  HeaderText  Edit                                  EditText   lt span style  font-size  20px  color   27ae60   gt  lt span class  glyphicons glyph-edit  gt  lt  span gt  lt  span gt                                   DeleteText   lt span style  font-size  20px  color   c0392b   gt  lt span class  glyphicons glyph-bin  gt  lt  span gt  lt  span gt                                   CancelText   lt span style  font-size  20px  color   c0392b   gt  lt span class  glyphicons glyph-remove-2  gt  lt  span gt  lt  span gt                                    UpdateText   lt span style  font-size  20px  color   2980b9   gt  lt span class  glyphicons glyph-floppy-saved  gt  lt  span gt  lt  span gt     gt    C   replace 5 with the column number of the button           if   e Row RowState  amp  DataControlRowState Edit   gt  0                               else                 LinkButton e Row Cells 5  Controls 2   OnClientClick    return confirm  Do you really want to delete

I quite like adding the code in the GridView RowDataBound event to inform  the user exactly which item they are trying to delete  Slightly better user experience   protected void GridView1 RowDataBound object sender  GridViewRowEventArgs e         if  e Row RowType    DataControlRowType DataRow                LinkButton lnkBtnDelete   e Row FindControl  lnkBtnDelete   as LinkButton              Use whatever control you want to show in the confirmation message         Label lblContactName   e Row FindControl  lblContactName   as Label           lnkBtnDelete Attributes Add  onclick   string Format  return confirm  Are you sure you want to delete the contact  0        lblContactName Text

Try this   I used for Update and Delete buttons  It doesn t touch Edit button  You can use auto generated buttons     protected void gvOperators OnRowDataBound object sender  GridViewRowEventArgs e                if e Row RowType    DataControlRowType DataRow  return          var updateButton    LinkButton e Row Cells 0  Controls 0           if  updateButton Text     Update                         updateButton OnClientClick    return confirm  Do you really want to update                         var deleteButton    LinkButton e Row Cells 0  Controls 2           if  deleteButton Text     Delete                         deleteButton OnClientClick    return confirm  Do you really want to delete

I did this a bit different  In my gridview I set the AutoGenerateDeleteButton  true   To find the delete button I use jQuery and add a click event to the found Anchors   jQuery  a   filter function              return this innerHTML indexOf  Delete      0             click function      return confirm  Are you sure you want to delete this record            This is quick and simple for what I need to do  Just be mindful that Every Anchor in the page that displays Delete will be selected by jQuery and will have the event added to it

I was having problems getting a commandField Delete button to honor the  return false  response to when a user clicked cancel on the  Are you sure  pop-up that one gets with using the javascript confirm   function  I didn t want to change it to a template field   The problem  as I see it  was that these commandField Buttons already have some Javascript associated with them to perform the postback  No amount of simply appending the confirm   function was effective   Here s how I solved it   Using JQuery  I first found each delete button on the page  there are several   then manipulated the button s associated Javascript based on whether the visitor agreed or canceled the confirming pop-up    lt script language  javascript  type  text javascript  gt    document  ready function                        input type  button     each function                         if    this  val       Delete                            var curEvent     this  attr  onclick                           var newContent    if affirmDelete      true      curEvent                                  this  attr  onclick  newContent                                                                     function affirmDelete                        return confirm  Are you sure        lt  script gt

I like this way of adding a confirmation prompt before deleting a record from a gridview  This is the CommandField definition nested within a GridView web control in the aspx page  There s nothing fancy here--just a straightforward Commandfield    x000D   x000D   lt asp CommandField ShowEditButton  true  UpdateText  Save  ShowDeleteButton  True  gt  x000D     lt ControlStyle CssClass  modMarketAdjust    gt  x000D   lt  asp CommandField gt  x000D   x000D   x000D    Then  all I had to do was add some code to the RowDeleting event of the GridView control  This event fires before the row is actually deleted  which allows you to get the user s confirmation  and to cancel the event if he doesn t want to cancel after all  Here is the code that I put in the RowDeleting event handler     Private Sub grdMarketAdjustment RowDeleting sender As Object  e As GridViewDeleteEventArgs  Handles grdMarketAdjustment RowDeleting   Dim confirmed As Integer   MsgBox  Are you sure that you want to delete this market adjustment    MsgBoxStyle YesNo   MsgBoxStyle MsgBoxSetForeground   Confirm Delete     If Not confirmed   MsgBoxResult Yes Then     e Cancel   True  Cancel the delete    End If End Sub   And that seems to work fine
