Yes or No confirm box using jQuery

Question

ConfirmDialog('Are you sure');

function ConfirmDialog(message) {
  $('<div></div>').appendTo('body')
    .html('<div><h6>' + message + '?</h6></div>')
    .dialog({
      modal: true,
      title: 'Delete message',
      zIndex: 10000,
      autoOpen: true,
      width: 'auto',
      resizable: false,
      buttons: {
        Yes: function() {
          // $(obj).removeAttr('onclick');                                
          // $(obj).parents('.Parent').remove();

          $('body').append('<h1>Confirm Dialog Result: <i>Yes</i></h1>');

          $(this).dialog("close");
        },
        No: function() {
          $('body').append('<h1>Confirm Dialog Result: <i>No</i></h1>');

          $(this).dialog("close");
        }
      },
      close: function(event, ui) {
        $(this).remove();
      }
    });
};

The alert method blocks execution until the user closes it:

use the confirm function:

if (confirm('Some message')) {
    alert('Thanks for confirming');
} else {
    alert('Why did you press cancel? You should have confirmed');
}

I've used these codes:

HTML:

<a id="delete-button">Delete</a>

jQuery:

<script>
$("#delete-button").click(function(){
    if(confirm("Are you sure you want to delete this?")){
        $("#delete-button").attr("href", "query.php?ACTION=delete&ID='1'");
    }
    else{
        return false;
    }
});
</script>

These codes works for me, but I'm not really sure if this is proper. What do you think?

Have a look at this jQuery plugin: jquery.confirm.

<a href="home" class="confirm">Go to home</a>

and then:

$(".confirm").confirm();

This will show a confirmation popup before proceeding to following the link.
