Syntax issue with JavaScript / ASPX

Question

What is the correct syntax of this snippet:

<asp:Button OnClick="foo" runat="server"  ID="foo"
 OnClientClick="return confirm("'<%= GetLocalResourceObject("fooRessource") %>'");"  />

i'm stuck with the ' and " at OnClientClick

you will have to use databinding.

could you not do this?

<asp:Button OnClick="foo" runat="server"  ID="foo"
OnClientClick="return myconfirm()");"  /> 

<script>
function myconfirm() 
{ 
   return confirm("<%= GetLocalResourceObject("fooRessource") %>");
}
</script>

@fubo, don't use the function name confirm as that will get confusing with window.confirm... you'd end up with recursion

yep - correct coder here: function myconfirm() { return confirm("<%= GetLocalResourceObject("fooRessource") %>"); }

Can you do this in our code behind file?

foo.OnClientClick = "return confirm('" + GetLocalResourceObject("fooRessource") + "')";

I'm unsure how well this will work inline.
