protected void OnRowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)

{

    if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)

    {

        string item = e.Row.Cells[0].Text;

        foreach (Button button in e.Row.Cells[2].Controls.OfType<Button>())

        {

            if (button.CommandName == "Delete")

            {

                button.Attributes["onclick"] = "if(!confirm('Do you want to delete " + item + "?')){ return false; };";
