[SOLVED] Confirm before continuing

[xiao]

On my PHP page, I have 3 links in every table row: edit, close, delete

I use a simple <a></a> for this link.

 

I want to let users confirm that they want to delete a message (with a pop up) how do I do this?

When they clikc 'Yes', they should just follow the href link from the, otherwise, nothing should happen.

I found lots of tutorials about confirm() pop ups, but I have no idea how to use them in a <a> link.

somin like this'd work for the basis...

 

function formconfirm(message) {
var conf=confirm(message);
if(conf) document.form.submit();
}

[taith]

then just

<a href="javascript:formconfirm('yourmessagehere');"></a>

[xiao]

do I have to put the javascript in my header?

Between <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"> And </script>?

I added this to my header:

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function formconfirm(message) {
var conf=confirm("Weet u zeker dat u deze job wilt verwijderen?");
if(conf) document.form.submit();
}
</script>

 

And used this:

<a href=\"javascript:formconfirm('http://localhost/jobs/job-wijzigen.php?actie=delete?id=".$info['id']."');\">[Delete]</a>

But when I click "Yes", I don't go to the Delete page

[phpQuestioner]

do it like this:

 

<a href=\"http://localhost/jobs/job-wijzigen.php?actie=delete?id=".$info['id']."\" onclick="return confirm('Weet u zeker dat u deze job wilt verwijderen?')">[Delete]</a>
