Very cool idea. Anything to get rid of confirmation dialogs! I see one problem: Many people habitually double-click everything - links, buttons, you name it. If you double-click the button, the second click ends up confirming it.
You could avoid this by disabling the button for a second with a "Wait" label on it, and then re-enabling it with the confirm label. That might be a little annoying, but probably not too bad, and it would keep the double-clickers out of trouble. -Mike > From: Stephan Beal > > Confirmer is a plugin for jQuery which implements a novel > approach to the process of confirming an action.
