Create a JavaScript Confirmation Box
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.

The Code / Example
Delete File
The confirm method returns the true/false result of the confirm box.
