Javascript And Confirm
Oct 13, 2006
This is a weird one and I am wondering if someone can help?
I have a piece of Javascript
function deleteRequest(searchID) {
if (confirm('Are you sure?')){
location = "index.php?spDB=inactive&searchID="+searchID;
}
}
When the page gets reloaded, it runs a database query and something is
made inactive.
The problem is:
When the confirm box appears, if I press OK quickly, the database query
doesn't happen. If I wait 1 second and then press OK, it is fine and
the query is run.
Basically it appears that the time between the confirm javascript
appearing and the time taken to press the Ok button affects the
reloading of the page.
Has anyone else had an issue like this?

I have created a form with two submit button “Delete and Edit” in the form I have a javascript code, that displays a confirm box when the delete button is clicked, clicking on cancel should stop the execution of the delete script and ‘ok’ should run the script. Now, using the form this way works perfectly in Mozilla fireworks, but IE posing a problem when I click on cancel, it still executes the delete script.
<form method="post" action="eddel.php" >
<input type="submit" value="delete" name="delete" onclick=”return confirm(‘are you sure you want to delete record?’)”;>
<label>
<input name="edit" type="submit" value="edit" />
</form>

I have never done any javascript at all but I think it can do what I want with ease.
Basically at the moment I have a link that calls a delete script written in php. The delete script just deletes and item from my mysql database. What I would like is a popup to appear when the link is clicked that asks for the user to confirm they wish to delete.
Could anyone either show and example or point me to a site that may have a tutorial or something.

I currently have the follwoing javascript function: Code:
/**
* ask question, if true goto X
*/
function watsConfirmAction( question, letsgoto )
{
// ask question
if ( confirm( question ) )
{
// on YES goto location
location.href = letsgoto;
}
}
which is used as follows:
HTML Code:
<a onClick="watsConfirmAction('ask question', 'some URL')">link</a>
If a user doesn't have javascript, for whatever reason, this will fail to send them anywhere. is there a better way of doing this to allow for javascript non compliant browsers?

A description of the problem:
1) Go to a page with various settings and a timeout (forces re-login
if over 10 minutes)
2) Before the timeout, make some changes to settings.
3) Press a "reset to defaults" button that uses a confirmation box to
let the user know what is about to be reset (lists items).
4) Walk away while the confirm box is displayed and come back after
the page timeout.
5) My screen now has the page, a confirm popup on top of that, and a
timeout alert on top of that.
6) Press OK to dismiss the timeout alert. The underlying page goes to
the login screen, but the confirm box remains.
How can I clear any javascript alert/confirm popups in this situation
automatically?

Hi, I have this JavaScript, which I only want to occur if a user clicks on a
hyperlink hotspot in a large image:
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
var answer = confirm ("This link is not available, click OK to load a
similar link, or Cancel to not.")
if (!answer)
window.location="http://www.yahoo.com/"
// -->
</script>
To make matters more challenging, there are about 10 hotspots in the image,
and I want them each to have a different value for window.location. I.e. if
the user clicks OK in each hotspot, each one will redirect them to a
different site.

I'm pretty sure after reading this board and many like it that it is
impossible to change the ok, ok/cancel buttons that appear by default
in the alert and confirm javascript dialogs. Now for question one why
not? And question two why do they still say ok and ok/cancel when
viewed in a non-english browser install?
I have installed Chinese IE 6.0 and these buttons still say Ok/Cancel.
the rest of the browser (buttons, menus, etc...) is in Chinese except
for these two stupid buttons. No one final question, whould having a
reginonal OS installed make any difference. Right now I'm using an
English OS but with the Chinese browser mentioned above.

is there a way of changing the values of the confirm box from ok / cancel to
yes / no
i have the following alert/confirm box but it is worded in a way that the ok
and cancel do not make sense:
function confirmNewSupplierWelcome(){
return confirm(
'Before going on to request a new supplier
'
+ 'are you sure there is no suitable alternative?'
+ '
Remember, new suppliers are authorised by exception only'
);
}

when my page loads it starts with a confrim box. If "Cancel" is selected then the rest of the page loads fine. If "Ok" is selected nothing after the confirm box loads.Also, it appears that IE and Firefox have trouble with this type of media and Chrome will only play the audio file for about 15 seconds.

I need to give two separate alerts depending on what the user clicks when they click the "Submit" button. I am using a confirm box. If they click "OK" it thanks them for their order. If they click "Cancel" it should go back to the form. I have written the code that I thought would work but it will not.
function confMsg(){
var s
s = confirm("Click OK to Submit Order. Click Cancel to Cancel")
if (s=="true"){
alert("Thank You for Your Order!")
else
return;
}}

function del(type, id, title) {
if (confirm("Are you sure you want to delete '" + title + "'"))
{
window.location.href = 'http://www.example.com/delete.php?t=' + type + '&id=' + id;
} else {
return false;
}}
PHP Code:
echo "<a href='#' onClick='del(a," .$result->getFieldByName('work_name') . ",". $result->getFieldByName('work_id') . "); return false;'>(Delete)</a></p>";
And finally the XHTML when I view source:
<a href='#' onClick='del(a,This is Another Test,38); return false;'>(Delete)</a>
... I'm getting absolutley no response. Ideas?

Basically, I'd like the code for a simple Confirm Dialog box.
My message is dynamic - I just want a confirmation box to appear when people click on a link which leads to a delete script.
I was wondering if people had both the <script> part and the <a> part to initialise the dialog box?

the total number of grades and the sum of the grades. Your program will ask a user to input a number grade (assume the user enters a number between 0-100) if the number grade is greater than 90 set your letter grade = A, >=90 = A>=80 = B>=70 = C<70 = FFor each grade entered add the number grade to your sum. output each number grade and letter in a sentence and on a separate line for example if the user entered 95, you would output 95=Aafter each grade is entered ask the user if they would like to continueif the user doesn't wish to continue, output the sum of grades, the number of grades entered, and the average (all on separate lines) with the values in BOLD.

Let's say I want to remove/insert one button in the popup panel of the
confirm function, or change the text of the button (ex. "ok" rename to
"pls try again"); and also change the background of that panel.
if not possible, how to write a simulated panel?

I've found articles/posts on creating custom confirm pops utilizing hidden <div> etc,
but adding 40 odd lines of code just to offer Yes or No buttons seems absurd.
Short of creating a complete confirmation div and script, is it possible
to EASILY change the button values of a confirmation pop-up?
For Example, "There is a related value not selected in the form.
Would you like to select it now?"

I'm new to Java Script and I'm having trouble getting something done. What I'm trying to do is have a confirm box open when the user closes the web page that asks a question. If the user clicks cancel, then the page stays closed. On the other hand, if the user clicks OK, then a page opens. The problem is, I have no problem getting it to work if the user "unloads" the page by using a link to another site, but I don't know if it is possible to use java script to re-open the browser, and then open it to a specific page if the user unloads the page by closing the browser.
My logic says it's not possible. Java script works in the browser, so how can it do anything once the browser has been closed? Am I right? If not, can you show me how to edit the code to make it work? Here's what I have so far:
<script type="text/javascript">
function showalert(){
var conf = confirm("text here");
if (conf == true){
window.location.href = "http://www.nameofpage.com";
} else {
return true;
}}
</script>

To confirm that a CMS user really wants to delete a record, I have added some Java Script that was originally intended to confirm if a user wants to visit a new web page that takes a long time to download. The script provided two location.replace() options: 1) to visit the new page or 2) to return to the previous page. I want to modify it so that the options are 1) to continue on to the following deletion script or 2) reurn to the previous page. How do I set up option 1) to do this in the following script? Probably something else than location.replace().
Right now I have option 1) set to direct the user to the same deletion page where this script resides. But this will just loop the user back thru the same JavaScript. Again, I want the first option to just allow the user to continue on thru the rest of the deletion script. Code:

First off I'm using a combination of PHP/MySQL/javascript for this code just as a heads up. I have a form that will delete information from my database. I would like to have a confirm() dialoge box appear to verify they truely would like to delete this information. If the confirm is true then I want it to redirect to a *.php that will execute the script, else if the confirm is false I want it to return false and do nothing. (close the dialoge box and take the user to the page they just requested the deletion from). I've searched for hours trying to get this and I think I'm close but I just can't seem to get the false confirm to work. Code:
