Question

Can anyone see why this line in PHP doesn’t work. The game card is deleted, but the confirm box does not appear for the user to okay or cancel.

echo "<a href='gamecard.php?selection=" . $row['gamedate'] . " onclick='return confirm('Delete game card?');'>Delete</a>";

Thank you.

You have single quotes inside of single quotes, you need to escape ’em. You also forgot the closing quote on the href attribute.

echo "<a href='gamecard.php?selection=" . $row['gamedate'] . "' onclick='return confirm(\"Delete game card?\");'>Delete</a>";
