The accepted answer is not perfect. If you do not use type="button", the web page will do postback even you have clicked cancel. The correct and easiest way is to take advantage of short-circuit evaluation and do this hack: replace ; with && !, like below.

The output will look like this:

It gives correct return value because true && !undefined will return true and undefined will be evaluated and false && !undefined will return false and undefined will NOT be evaluated which is exactly what we want.
