Hi
If you have a delete "link" then try this :
<script language="javascript">
function confirmThis(url) {
if (confirm("Are you sure you want to delete ?")) {
window.location = url;
}
}
</script>
Then you can generate the delete link dynamically with PHP eg :
<a href="javascript:confirmThis('delete.php?id=xxx')">Delete!</a>
This should pop up a OK/Cancel dialog box type confirmation.
Regards
Girish

Subject: [PHP] How do I use a confirm box to confirm before deletion from a
database
Hello,
Thankyou for your reply.
When a user clicks upon a delete link that deletes a record from a database,
I would like to be able to give them the option to OK or Cancel this action.
I have tried coding the browsers built in confirm box (I can bring up this)
but am unable to combine it with php or a combination of php and a
javascript funtion
Thanks,
Ivan
