[thelist] js alert to confirm deletion

[Pete Freitag]

this should do the trick...


<script>
function confirmDelete(delUrl) {
	if (confirm("Are you sure you want to delete")) {
		document.location = delUrl;
	}
}
</script>

<a href="javascript:confirmDelete('delete.php...')">Delete</a>

Subject: [thelist] js alert to confirm deletion


Hi there,

I'm sure this is very simple, but I can't get my brain around it:


I have a link in a PHP page that reloads that page (with all the query
strings
as well) and tacks on an extra query:

<?php
$current_url = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];

...

<a href="$current_url&amp;DelPic=$imageid" title="Delete this
image">delete</a>
?>

And then some logic happens using the DelPic value.


I'd like to put a JS alert in there so that the user has to click on it to
confirm they want the delete to go ahead. And if the click 'NO' then the
page
stays as it was.


Could anyone suggest how to do that? I can't work it out :o/


Thanks very much - dunstan
