Hello, I`m making website using ASP.NET

When I build a code about button click event, I want to make like this.

1. Modify cancel button press, confirm message showed "Are your Sure?"
2. If clicked yes, call javascript history back method, moved to previous page
3. if clicked no, nothing happened.

How can I make that?? Please help me.

What I have tried:

<asp:Button ID="btnCancel" runat="server" Text="Cancel" OnClientClick="JavaScript:window.history.back(1); return false;"/>
