A little Java

[rapmonkey]

Does anyone know how I can have it so when a link is clicked a java error pops up, then if ok is clicked it proceeds with the link, but if cancel is clicked, the link is not executed? Thanks for any help. 🙂

A couple of small points...

• I think you mean Javascript not Java
• If you expect to have OK and CONFIRM then you want a "confirm" box not an "error" box

As for the answer, you will probably need a function to handle this... something which accepts the text message and URL for the link.

e.g.

<script language=Javascript>
function LinkConfirm(msg, link)
{
  if (confirm(msg) ) 
  {
   // goto the URL
   return true; 
  }
  return false;
}
</script>

Sorry I can't be more specific but it's late here in the UK and I can't think straight... 🙂

Yes, I meant Javascript. Java, Javascript, it's all the same to me. 😛
Anyway, how would I get that code to work with a hyperlink?

onclick=LinkConfirm(msg, link)
Try checking out some javascript sites, since this is a PHP site.
