Confirm message... ?

[HakonHoy]

<A HREF='edit_other.asp?id=" & rs("ID") & "&mode=delete' " & "onClick=" & MyQuote & "return confirm('Are you sure you want to delete this news ?');" & MyQuote & "><font face='verdana, arial, helvetica' size='1' color='#014A65'>Delete</font></A>

I got this code in ASP.. what I need is to have it in php.. what i'm actually most interested in is the return confirm thing.. is there a code for such a thing in php, if yes, can anyone please tell me what it is, I have been looking all over for it...

PHP is server side so this is not possible. You'd have to do it with something client side like javascript:

var confirmbox = confirm("Are you sure?");
if (confirmbox==true) {
     return true;
}else{
     return false;
}

Biostall, it may be ASP but what it is doing is producing html with a dom event onClick, exaclty the same as we would produce with php.

Hakon, the most obvious difference to php is the VB '&' concatenation operator: in php you just use '.' in it's place. The other significant diff with vb is the way vars are names, in php they begin with '$', and array elements are also coded differently as you will see.

echo '<A HREF="edit_other.asp?id=' . $rs['ID'] . '&mode=delete" onClick="return confirm(\'Are you sure you want to delete this news ?\');" ><font face="verdana, arial, helvetica" size="1" color="#014A65">Delete</font></A>';

Not sure what your 'MyQuote' thing is, must be some VB function you've written!
