I came across the same issue recently and managed to solve it as follows:-
lambda row: A(SPAN('Delete', _class="button btn btn-info btn-sm",
_title='Delete', _onclick = "return confirm('Are you sure?');"), \
_href=URL("default",
"delete_company",args=[row.id])),
This will give you the standard pop confirmation box with customised text.
Hope this helps.

Subject: [web2py] Confirmation forms. The book is unclear. How can I associate
a pop confirmation box with a link?
This has been asked before but I can't find any usable answers, at least for
those who aren't experts on css and javascript.
Tried to do something along the lines suggested in the book 'Forms and
Validators/Confirmation Forms' without any success. Either I'm stupid or this
feature is broken or the explanation is incomplete/unhelpful.
Actually, my problem is a bit different. I am using SQLFORM.grid and
.smartgrid, with additional links specified. On one of these links I would like
to have a confirming Yes/No when the link is clicked, before following the
link. It almost looks in the documentation if this could be done using the A()
helper, but I can't figure it out. My link is a replacement for the standard
Delete button because there is other stuff that needs to be done BEFORE the
deletion is performed, rather than after via ondelete.
