Alert Box

Ok, how do I do the same as WF does on the log out button on a linked button in my site, tried a few different ones from the net but none seem to quite match what I want to do, then I make them worse!!!!

I want to click my link and then an alert box says are you sure, OK / Cancel, just like the one on WF

Easy. HTML:

HTML: Select all

<a href="logout.php" onclick="logout_confirm();">Logout</a>

javascript:

Code: Select all

function logout_confirm() {
  if(confirm("Are you sure you want to logout?"))
    return true;
  else
    return false;
}

Tell me if that works or not, didn't have a chance to test it.

Every thing works except both responses take me back to the homepage even if you click cancel

Try this out:

HTML: Select all

<a href="logout.php" onclick="logout_confirm(); return false;">Logout</a>

javascript:

Code: Select all

function logout_confirm() {
  if(confirm("Are you sure you want to logout?"))
    window.location = "logout.php";
}
