Hello guys, I have a requirement like...I have a dvwp, in that I have comments field as text box. So that when ever user tries to delete the item, he enters comments and deletes it.It will send an notification with information and gets deleted. So I have to do this by javascript. Do you guys have any idea?

Do any body have any idea?

Probably, All you need is validation to the textbox. The validation should occur when a user clicks on delete item. Is this assumption right? Thanks VV

No, actually I want to do two things, saving the comments and then deleting the list item with a single button click using javascript? Can we able to do that?

Where should the comments get stored? Do you have a list to store the comments? Are you using SharePoint 2010? Thanks VV

There is a button, which has to do two things, saving the comments to the list and after that it has to delete the list item from list. Can we do this on click event for button in javascript in dvwp. I am using MOSS 2007 I am sending the information as notification in item deleting event handler(this is different)

Hi, You cannot realize it only using JavaScript even if you allowing insert/edit/delete options in DVWP since you need to update the list item firstly before deleting it and only JavaScript cannot finish the update function when you clicking the delete button. If you add a new button in DVWP, you have to do some coding in code behind of the aspx.page using C# or VB.net to receive the comments. And in this case, you don’t need event handler any more for you can send the notification directly without updating the list item and then delete the list item. Or you can use JavaScript to clear the comments field and give a hint that you need to fill the comments field of the list item before deleting it. Hope it is helpful! Seven

Can you explain more about the second option. Like creating a button and writing code in c#. How can I do that?

Hi, For the second option, it is actually creating or editing the aspx page using asp.net. I think the point for this method is that how to deploy the code behind code into SharePoint and editing the page will be just like editing a page in ASP.NET. And here is a special article about deploy the code behind to the SharePoint: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc411726(office.12).aspx Hope it is helpful!Seven
