ASP.NET OnClientClick=“return false;” doesn't work

Question

I just want to add some client side (JQuery Javascript) validation in a web user control. I put an OnClientClick handler and the function gets called. BUT, even if I return

Answer 1

oddly enough this worked for me:

OnClientClick="javascript:SubmitTableData(); return CanSubmit();"

set the return value submit with the first function call:

function CanSubmit() {    
    return submit;
}

Hope this helps someone.
