how to add delete confirmation message

Question

In HTML, delete_icon is an image class in which if I click it, the email id gets deleted without any confirmation message. I want to add a popup to display when delete_icon is clicked. The popup mentioned above should open and if yes is clicked, the instance should get deleted, otherwise it should return the same. How can I achieve this in jQuery or JavaScript?

Answer 1

You can better use as follows

 <a href="url_to_delete" onclick="return confirm('Are you sure want to dele');">Delete</a>

Answer 2

Hmm. You do this with simple javascript.

<script type="text/javascript">
function deleteImage(x){
    var conf = confirm("Are you sure you want to delete this image?");
    if(conf == true){
        alert("OK... you chose to proceed with deletion of "+x);
    }
}
</script>

Using the default browser confirmation box. And this is the example use of the function.

<input name="myBtn" type="button" onClick="deleteImage('images/pic.jpg')" value="Delete Image">
