Do a postback in jQuery UI dialog

Question

This has been already asked by many SO users and have solutions also. But none of them is working for me.

In aspx

<asp:Button ID="btnConfirm" ClientIDMode="Static" runat="server" Text="Confirm" OnClick="btnConfirm_Click"/>

<script type="text/javascript">
    $(function inPageLoad() {
        Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManager.getInstance().add_pageLoaded(function () {

            //Confirmation Dialog
            $(document).on('click', '#btnConfirm', function (e) {
                e.preventDefault();
                $('<div></div>').appendTo('body')
                  .html('<div><h6>Yes or No?</h6></div>')
                  .dialog({
                      modal: true, title: 'message', zIndex: 10000, autoOpen: true,
                      width: 'auto', resizable: false,
                      buttons: {
                          Yes: function () {
                              $(this).dialog("close");
                              __doPostBack('btnConfirm','');
                          },
                          No: function () {
                              $(this).dialog("close");
                          }
                      },
                      close: function (event, ui) {
                          $(this).remove();
                      }
                  });
            });
        });
    });

    $(document).ready(inPageLoad);

</script>

In aspx.cs

protected void btnConfirm_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    SomeFunction();
}

I want to do a postback(go to 'btnConfirm_Click' event in codebehind) if the click is 'Yes'. Eventhough the dialog popups nicely it doesn't do the postback. All help appreciated!

Answer 1

instead of __doPostBack('btnConfirm','');

 Yes: function () {
  $("[id*=btnConfirm]").click();
 },  

UPDATING MY ANSWER

Take another button, with display none property and trigger that Button

css

.hidden
{
display:none;
}

aspx

<asp:Button id="btnhidden" runat="server" onclick="btnhidden();" cssClass=hidden/>

javascript

  Yes: function () {
      $("[id*=btnhidden]").click();
     },
