Help with confirmDel to delete a database record

[judym5]

I have a form containing a list of events. Next to each event is a Delete link. When clicked I want to delete that record out of the database. This is the first script I've tried to write and it doesn't work - I get the confirm message, but when I click Yes, nothing happens, no error message - it just leaves the event there.

In my Events table, the unique column is ID.

Here is my script:

<script>

function confirmDel(ID)
{
if (confirm(&quot;Are you sure you want to delete this Event? It CANNOT be recovered.&quot)
{
document.location = &quot;/events/eventlist.cfm?action=delID=&quot; + ID;
}
}

</script>

And here's the code for the Delete link.

<a href=&quot;Javascript: confirmDel(#ID#)&quot;>Delete</a>

Can someone tell me what's wrong here?

Thanks,

Judy

document.location = &quot;/events/eventlist.cfm?action=delID=&quot; + ID;

Should be changed to :

window.location = &quot;/events/eventlist.cfm?action=delID=&quot; + ID;

Let me know if that fixes it. Gary

I change it, but that didn't fix it. The record still remains in the event list.
