RE: [PHP] Confirmation dialog box

Hi.. Unless you get into a bit of dialog building to open a window, with a form, to pass data to a script, this is really more of a javascript issue. Javascript provides a function called confirm which returns true/false based on whether ok or cancel is clicked. You can use this in a form, for example. Given a form that deletes an item from a database, your form tag would look like.. <form method="post" action="foo.php" onSubmit="javascript:return confirm('Do you really want to delete this item?);"> In this case the form is only submitted when Ok is pressed/clicked. You cannot, directly, get the value returned from a confirm() in JS, from within your PHP script, since the PHP script runs on the server, before the confirm is ever executed on the client. Hope this helps ?
