Create a JavaScript Confirmation Box

By  on  

Javascript confirmation boxes aren't used nearly as often as they used to be, mostly due to more advanced usages of JavaScript and modal boxes, but they are still helpful. Whenever I create administrative functionality for my customers, I always use a JavaScript confirmation box before executing any permanent action -- an example would be when a customer tries to delete a file.

The Code / Example

Delete File

The confirm method returns the true/false result of the confirm box.
