[tazgalsinh]

This is my script to delete a record from a table, how do i do a quick confirmation screen wheter or not they want to continue?

<?php require_once('Connections/RecordStorePHP.php'); ?>
<?php
function GetSQLValueString($theValue, $theType, $theDefinedValue = "", $theNotDefinedValue = "") 
{
  $theValue = (!get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ? addslashes($theValue) : $theValue;

  switch ($theType) {
    case "text":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
      break;    

    case "long":
    case "int":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? intval($theValue) : "NULL";
      break;
    case "double":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . doubleval($theValue) . "'" : "NULL";
      break;
    case "date":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
      break;
    case "defined":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? $theDefinedValue : $theNotDefinedValue;
      break;
  }
  return $theValue;
}

if ((isset($HTTP_GET_VARS['typeID'])) && ($HTTP_GET_VARS['typeID'] != "")) {
  $deleteSQL = sprintf("DELETE FROM item_types WHERE typeID=%s",
                       GetSQLValueString($HTTP_GET_VARS['typeID'], "int"));

  mysql_select_db($database_RecordStorePHP, $RecordStorePHP);
  $Result1 = mysql_query($deleteSQL, $RecordStorePHP) or die(mysql_error());

  $deleteGoTo = "catalog_types.php";
  if (isset($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['QUERY_STRING'])) {
    $deleteGoTo .= (strpos($deleteGoTo, '?')) ? "&" : "?";
    $deleteGoTo .= $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['QUERY_STRING'];
  }
  header(sprintf("Location: %s", $deleteGoTo));
}
?>

the other way would be to save all posted contents in hidden fields and pass them to the final page
