[Javascript] location redirect

[Grinwald, Uri]

Hi Tim.
 
This is a good point.
I am not sure about the CSS box thing, can you provide an example or
take me to a website that does?
Also my question still stands even if I opt for your better solution. I
would have to still create three leaving pages each with a diffrent URL?

With so many pop-up blockers these days, why not just have the question
on a 'leaving' page, where a 'no' takes you javascript:back, or make a
CSS box visible with the question in it?

	Hello
	 
	I have a unique codign question and was wondering if there was a
smarter way of performing the task at hand.
	I have a few links on my website that have URL whick take them
to external sites (opens new window)
	 
	I have been asked to create a pop up that informs the user that
they are leaving our site and then asks them if they want to proceed by
clicking OK or Cancel respectively.
	 
	The Cancel button closes the window with the following code:
	 
	<form><input type=button value="Cancel"
onClick="javascript:window.close();">
	</form>
	 
	The OK button I have attached a function that offers them one
more chance (confirm box) that they can cancel out of before
redirecting.
	 
	Here is the function:
	function confirm_entry()
	{
	input_box=confirm("Are you sure you want to leave
dundeeprecious.com ?");
	if (input_box==true)
	 
	{ 
	document.location.href =
"http://www.tse.com/HttpController?GetPage=QuotesViewPage&DetailedView=D
etailedPrices&Language=en&QuoteSymbol_1=dpm";
	 
	}
	 
	else
	{
	// Output when Cancel is clicked
	window.close();
	}
	 
	}
	-->
	</script>
	 
	My problem is that the initial page has actually three separate
external links so how can I change the code to take them to the correct
link based on the referrer URL?
	 
	Currently I would have to create three similiar pages and just
change the location.href code... there has to be an easier way right?
