Questiion on "Are you sure"

[sheldonlg]

I have a page that has three submit buttons. Depending upon which one
was clicked, I process it differently on the server in php. One of
those buttons is a delete action so I would like to add an "Are you
sure?" for that button. However, I don't want to do anything with the
other buttons.

I know how to do it if that were the only button ( onsubmit="retur n
validateAction( )" ).

<input onclick = 'return .......'

<input type="submit" name="action" value="Update">
<input type="submit" name="action" value="Delete"
onClick="if (!confirm('Sure ?')) return false;">

The 'name'-argument can be used to set the value of 'action' in PHP
(Delete or Update).

Hope this helps,

I know how to do it if that were the only button ( onsubmit="retur n
validateAction ()" ).

<input type="submit" name="action" value="Update">
<input type="submit" name="action" value="Delete"
onClick="if (!confirm('Sure ?')) return false;">

onClick = "return confirm('Sure ?');"
