The idea is basically to hook either the onclick of the button you're submitting from or the onsubmit event of the form.

The easiest way to do this is to simply put the confirm code into the HTML the ASPX and attach it to the appropriate object. Alternately you can do this in code as well by using the Attributes collection of the control and adding the handler as an attribute.

I downloaded the moderators DialogWindow control from http://www.metabuilders.com/tools/DialogWindow.aspx. I looked through the accompanying help file and kind of see what the deal is but basically and secondly, I'm confused and need some help.
