pop up boxes? 1

[taval]

I currently have a submit button on an asp page. If the button is clicked I want a pop-up confirmation box that says &quot;Are you sure you want to update this record&quot;, if the user clicks &quot;OK&quot; then the next asp page is called otherwise nothing happens?<br><br>Grateful for any help.<br>Thankx

Looks like some extra semi-colons got mixed in there accidentally - be sure to remove those if you use this. <br><br>Also, note that this will only work if the user CLICKS on the link. If the user uses the <i>tab key</i> (which is rather highly uncommon) and moves to the link manually and presses enter, I believe the link would go forward without a prompt. You could try adding onKeyPress or use location=&quot;thelink&quot; in the javascript if it's absolutely crucial. <p>--Will Duty<br><a href=mailto:wduty@radicalfringe.com>wduty@radicalfringe.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br>
