confirm dialog box in php

Question

I have this echo statement:

echo "<td align=center style=border:0>"."<a href='?delete=$row[id]'>Delete</a>"."</td>";

how am I able to make that when I press the 'Delete' a yes no dialog box will appear?

I've read somewhere that it can add some thing like this somewhere in the statement:

onClick="javascript:return confirm(\'Are you sure you want to delete this record?\')"

Any help would be appreciated. thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Try this:

echo "<td align=center style=border:0><a onclick='return confirm(\"Are you sure you want to delete this record?\")' href='?delete=$row[id]'>Delete</a></td>";

I got rid of the unnecessary "." in your original code.

Answer 2

Just Use this

echo "<td align=center style=border:0><a onclick='return confirm(\"Are you sure you want to delete this record?\")' href='?delete=$row[id]'>Delete</a></td>";

Instead of

echo "<td align=center style=border:0>"."<a href='?delete=$row[id]'>Delete</a>"."</td>";
