[RESOLVED] My Gridview Delete Button Works with IE but not with Chrome

I am using VS 2010 to create my application.  I have a gridview with a delete button that works as expected when deployed when I test it in my IE9 Browser but fails when I test it in a Chrome browser.  Is there a workaround for this apparent chrome/.net
incompatability?  I appreciate any ideas, suggestions, etc. you care to offer........................Phil Hoop

Honestly, I don't know if there's much we can tell you based on what you have shown us.  What portion of it fails?  When I add your code into a test app and run it in Chrome it appears to be running as expected.  This has just a txt_id (pk in the Table)
and text field (varchar(50))

Working GridView code in Chrome:

Speshulk925:  Thanks for your post.  Actually you have done an excellent job of condensung my situation to what I think are the basic elements.  In my case, when I click the delete button (using the Chrome browser), the alert message appears as expected,
but when I click OK nothing happens.  I will post the entire html as well as the code behind..  Based on what you have showed  in your condensation, I'm really puzzled.  The code below works well with IE9 but fails with chrome.  I have a number of pages in
my application with gridviews all of which exhibit this same discrepancy between IE9 and Chrome.  I'd appreciate your review of the code below.  My intuition makes me think that the Script Manager (for the validators) might be a player in this puzzle.  Thank
you very much...........Phil Hoop

Speshulk925:  I have commented out everything but the gridview, master page, and SqlDataSource.  All of the codebehind is also commented out, and I still get the desired behavior from IE9 and the undesired behavior from Chrome.  Any ideas?  At this point
I think that the version of chrome I am using simply will not work with a simple gridview and its delete button - I am using the latest version of chrome which I downloaded/installed yesterday.  I definitely appreciate you interest and ideas.  Thank you.

Speshulk925:  I found the problem.  When I removed the following code and remembered to
rebuild my application it now works with chrome.  Now I have to develop a different method to get the functionality it provided, this should be reasonably easy.  Thank you for your assistance.
