action and onclick attributes on commandLink

Can i use action and onclick attribute on command line apex component together?

Can anyone give me some examples?

In a case like this I use the oncomplete event and not the onclick event. Many times if I use the onclick event the action won't execute.

 

Ex.

<apex:commandLink action="{!someAction}" value="myLink" oncomplete="javascript&colon;jsFunction();"/>

Yes. you can use.
onClick is javascript funcion and will be called before action method.

example
<apex:commandLink value="Click Me" onClick="onClickJSMethod();" action="{!controllerAction}"/>

Of Course you can,

and you can return value from JS Function, if that value is true then system will call action of that Command Link, 

<apex:commandLink value="Click" onClick="return JSFunction();" action="{!controllerAction}"/>

Its not working in my case , even my method is returns true.

Here is the code.
<apex:commandButton value="Send" action="{!sendEmail}" onclick="return checkValidation();"/>
checkValidation returning true values still action doesnot working,.

In case anyone arrives here from google, the reason the above snippet doesn't work is because the attibute is "onClick" not "onclick".
