Hi all,

I have a webform with a datalist. This dalist has a label and two buttons: btnEdit and btnDelete which allows to edit and delete, both buttons are working fine.
What I wanted is to add a confirmation for deletion (javascript), so I place this piece of code in the ItemDataBound event of the datalist:

private void datIata_ItemDataBound(object sender, System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataListItemEventArgs e)

{
   Button btnDelete; 
   if(( e.Item.ItemType == ListItemType.Header) || (e.Item.ItemType ==
			ListItemType.Footer))
			return;
   btnDelete = (Button) e.Item.FindControl("btnDelete");	
   btnDelete.Attributes.Add("onclick","return confirmDelete();");	
}

this is the function ConfirmDelete (.js file):

function confirmDelete()
{ 
  var x = confirm("Are you sure you want delete record?");
  if (x)
  { 
	return true;
  }
  else  
  {
    return false;
  } 
}	

The deletion is working fine, is showing the confirmation window BUT if I try to edit I got this error:

Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Stack Trace: 


[NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.]

Any ideas/suggestions will be much appreciated.

Thanks.
