JavaScript - Confirmation When Clicking A Link
Hi all, I want to have a javascript popup box so that when a hyperlink is clicked, a user is asked if they are sure they want to click this link, if they select ok then the page loads, if they click canel then nothing happens, so i have this code below:
Code: <script type="text/javascript"> function confirmSubmit() { var agree=confirm("Are you sure you wish to click this link?"); if (agree) return true ; else return false ; } </script> Code: <a onclick="return confirmSubmit()" href="page.html">Page</a> However when a user clicks cancel the link still loads, can anyone see where I am going wrong? any help will be appreciated Similar TutorialsHello. I have looked everywhere and I absolutely cannot find a method that works. I'm making an html website with flash. This is all I want...... A swf "this will be the default flash you see" underneath that flash I want 3 text links named..... Flash1 Flash2 Flash3 when you click flash1, 2, or 3 I want it to swap out the Current flash video with a different one. This way The user can watch all the flash vids on the same page, rather than a separate page for each flash. I found a way to swap them out using iframe, however that requires me to make a separate html page for each of my swf's themselves. I dont want to do that. Plz if someone could help me I would greatly appreciate it! I hope I am posting this in the correct section, I know swfobject involves javascripting so thats why I'm posting here. Not that your method HAS to involve swfobject to embed. If someone can give me code that I can just copy/paste into a blank page in dreamweaver (and I would adjust the embded swf file name and size etc obviously) and have it work that would be fantastic. thank you How to get this to work? Code: <html> <body> <script type="text/javascript" src="01.js"> <h1>Welcome</h1> <a href="#" onclick="write(); return false;">Click here</a> <div id="info_here"> </div> </body> </html> 01.js Code: function write() { var a=document.getElementById("info_here"); a.innerHTML=document.write("Hello <br />" + "Thanks for clicking"); } I tried to word the question as best as possible, but here is what I want to do. I am creating a calculator online and it is getting more and more extensive, which is good b/c I'm learning a lot. Here is what I'm trying accomplish now. I am using "input" to get information from the user in the top section of my calculator and that will always stay the same. The part that will change is the results section (bottom part of the calc) based on a few different variations or setups, so I want to be able have them click on a few different options. Option 1 Option 2 Option 3 Depending on which one they click I want the javascript that is run for the results section to correspond to the option chosen. I also, want to be able to have a default option displayed the first time the page is loaded and then have it change if a different option is chosen. I don't think reloading the page is necessary, but I'm new to this and could use a little direction. I hope what I'd like to do makes a little sense. I'm not asking for any code written that will do this, but naturally something hints or tips that could get me going. I don't know how to "monitor" a link and return a value to a variable, so that it can be put into a an if statement in the results section. After that, it would be continually monitored or somehow restarted if the variable does change. Again, I don't know if this is the best way to go at it, but I'm not sure at all. Any help would be awesome. I have looked at "onclick", but I'm not completely sure how I can tie it all together of if I should use another method. Thanks for any suggestions/ideas/help. Hello guys, You were all very kind to help me a few months ago when I was trying to create the code which is posted below. it is a table of banner ads that will rotate on my website and the appropriate link follows the appropraite ad when they rotate. everything is working fine except that when you click on one of the ads ( which is a link), the link works but the page displays an error at the bottom as soon as any link is clicked. Since this type of hyperlink is associated with the javascript, im not sure how to correct the issue. maybe it is a simple thing. can anyone take a look at this and help me figure out the issue? thanks.

The instructions are to have a confirm box pop up when links with the HTML class value "external" are clicked. If the user clicks "OK" they should be directed to the linked page. If they click "Cancel" they should not be directed anywhere. Here's my code: Code: function checkClass() { var links = document.getElementsByTagName("a"); for ( var i = 0 ; i < links.length ; i++ ) { var link = links[i]; if (link.className == "external") { link.onclick = clickHandler(); } } } window.onload = checkClass; function clickHandler() { if (confirm("You clicked an external link. Do you really want to leave this site?")) { return true; } return false; } The problem is that the confirm box is triggered on page load and not on link click. I know I wrote Code: window.onload = checkClass; but how else should I call the function? I thought Code: if (link.className == "external") would keep it from going as far as to the confirm box until an external link was clicked. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction, Johanna I have an action in PHP where, when a user clicks the delete button i want a confirmation box.

Ok I know there are a few other posts about this but I can't find one similar to my problem. The confirmation box pops up, but cancel does nothing. it is for deletion of a movie off a server for class, but if you hit cancel it deletes the entry anyway. here is my code: Code: <script type="text/javascript"> function show_confirm() { var r=confirm("Are you sure you want to delete?"); if (r==true) { window.location="movie_delete.cfm?FilmID=#FilmID#"; } } </script> [<a href="movie_delete.cfm?FilmID=#FilmID#" onclick="show_confirm()">Delete</a>] notice anything wrong? Hi Everyone, Has anyone noticed the twitter confirmation box (when you hit save in Settings, the page refreshes and a white confitmation box appears along the top of the screen and disappears again in a few seconds)? Does anyone know how to go about implementing this? My JS skills would not be the best. I wonder is there a jquery plugin that I could use or similar?

This board seems very helpful, so here goes. Im trying to grab certain variables like orderID & Subtotal variables that are posted to the confirmation page. The reason im grabbing these is for a confirmation pixel that is displayed for commission junction. When some clicks on their link, then completes an order, their tracking pixel fires grabs these variables and that way they can track the order confirmaton. The problem is they dont see the tracking pixel firing and its not grabbing the variables. I dont know what to do. Here is the code. maybe someone here can help me?? This is the code that shows on the confirmation page. Im assuming this is where im suppose to grab the variables. Code: //<![CDATA[ var SecureCartOrders = [ {"orderID":154983165,"name":"Max Test","company":null,"email1":"max@maxtest.com","address1":"123 main st","address2":null,"city":"miami","state":"Florida","zip":"33845","country":"United States","fax":null,"phone":"5611112222","secondaryphone":null,"cardtype":"","shipname":"Max Test","shipCompany":null,"shipAddress1":"123 main st","shipAddress2":null,"shipCity":"west palm beach","shipState":"Florida","shipZip":"33405","shipCountry":"United States","status":"Accepted","product":["oil product"],"sku":["FC1246"],"quantity":[1],"price":[0.00],"option":[[]],"productattributes":[{}],"plist":"3598071","Total":0.00,"shippingMethod":"Free Shipping","shippingAmount":0,"grandTotal":0.00,"adtrack":0} ]; //]]> This is the javascript code that im using to grab those variables. The variables that i need are orderID & Total Code: <script type='text/javascript'> var orderId = SecureCartOrders[0].orderID; var subTotal = SecureCartOrders[0].Total; var url ='https://www.emjcd.com/u?CID=111111&TYPE=343000&CURRENCY=USD&METHOD=IMG'; url += '&OID=' + orderId; url += '&AMOUNT=' +subTotal; document.write('<img width=\'20\' height=\'1\' src=\' + url + \'\'>'); </script> I have no idea what else i can do.
