Hello,

I have just spent the last few hours trying to determine why a form is submitted to the server from a button click, which was not the intended behaviour. The form works fine in DNN 7.01.02, I only get the problem in 7.02.02.

In my aspx I have the following markup:



<asp:Button ID="ContentButtonSave" runat="server" Text="Save" />

I have a function for the click event in JQuery where I use the PreventDefault method to prevent the form being submitted and make a AJAX call to a web service instead.

The HTML generated for each button is not the same.

In DNN 7.01.02 the following is generated for the button, which works just fine:



<input type="submit" name="dnn$ctr509$Edit$MainFormUserControl$ContentUserControl$ContentButtonSave" value="Save" id="ContentButtonSave" />

But in DNN 7.02.02 however, the following is generated:



<input type="button" name="dnn$ctr477$Edit$MainFormUserControl$ContentUserControl$ContentButtonSave" value="Save" onclick=" __doPostBack(&#39;dnn$ctr477$Edit$MainFormUserControl$ContentUserControl$ContentButtonSave&#39;,&#39;&#39;)" id="ContentButtonSave" />

Note the additional onclick event.

Since I don't need any server side functionality for this button, I was able to change the server side markup to use plain html:



<input type="submit" value="Save" id="ContentButtonSave" />

Which works OK.







The questions I have are:



What causes the difference in the generated HTML from the two DNN versions?



Is there anyway to prevent this happening in the future?



What else might be effected?

Best Regards,

Steve
