Hi Ivan, I've this a number of times. What I suggest is that you have two
forms, each with a button on the page that receives the delete request. Both
forms post to the processing page. The first button passes a value called
"dodelete" and the second one passes another value say, "dontdelete". On the
processing page you determine if $dodelete is set, if it is then do your
delete. If not, redirect them to another page and bypass the whole deleteion
process. Below if the code I use on the processing page:
<?php session_start(); ?>
<?php
if (!isset($HTTP_SESSION_VARS["islogged"])){
header("Location:index.php");
}
if(isset($dodelete)){
// connect to db
$connectionToDB = odbc_connect("4gdols4f", "jolf", "rty");
$sqldel = "DELETE FROM RECOMMENDATION WHERE recid ='$recid'";
odbc_do($connectionToDB, $sqldel);
}
else
{
header("Location:login.php");
}
?>

Hello,
Thankyou for your reply.
When a user clicks upon a delete link that deletes a record from a database,
I would like to be able to give them the option to OK or Cancel this action.
I have tried coding the browsers built in confirm box (I can bring up this)
but am unable to combine it with php or a combination of php and a
javascript funtion
Thanks,
Ivan
