Oh! That's a good idea. However, that presents another problem for my page. By way of some background, I'm using a dataTable to build a list of upcoming conferences. The final column contains two links inside, "Edit" and "Delete." The Edit navigates to a detail page, while the delete would obviously remove the record and reload the page. I also have an "Add Conference" button outside of the table. Using the onSubmit attribute would prompt for confirmation no matter what control is activated. Perhaps I should just use commandButtons instead of commandLinks and avoid the issue altogether.
