casperinlove

Hi there, I am a newbie in PHP, hope someone who can help me with this.

I trying to check if the table is empty, then make a popup menu to confirm by user. If yes, to addnew menu. If no, back to home.

My codes like this as follows:

<?php

.....

$sql=sprintf("SELECT * FROM table");

pg_query($dbconnect, "begin");
$result=pg_query($dbconnect, $sql);
pg_query($dbconnect, "commit");

if (pg_num_rows($result) !=0) {

// variables = table records for displaying.

} else {
?>
<script language="JavaScript">
var agree="confirm("Please enter yes or no!");

if (agree)
    windows.location="abc.html";
else
    windows.location="home.html";

</script>
<?php
}
?>

......

There are something wrong, it is not working on run the javascript. someone please help!

Thanks

You have a quote right before confirm("Please enter yes or no!");. Confirm boxes have the buttons of OK and Cancel, not Yes or No, just FYI
Also, it is good to put PHP code in tags in your posts, it makes it easier to read

Hope it helps

here is what you asked me for in your PM

simply replace all your JS with mine and it will work

function checker()
{
	if (confirm("Please enter OK or CANCEL!"))
	{
		window.location.href = "abc.html";
	}
	else
	{
		window.location.href = "home.html";
}
checker();
