Question

This is my code:

<input type="submit" value="Delete" onclick="del('Are you sure you want to Delete?')">

<script language="JavaScript">
function del(display) 
{   
    var inputs = document.myform;   

    if(inputs[5].value != '')
    {
        confirm(display);  
    }
}
</script>

When I click either the “ok” or the “cancel”, they both did the same way (the OK way)

How can I make the “cancel” do what it is supposed to do?

NOTE: I have a form there that I didn’t include for the simplicity of question.

Answer 1

<input type="submit" value="Delete" onclick="return del('Are you sure you want to Delete?')">

<script language="JavaScript">
function del(display) 
{   
    var inputs = document.myform;   

    if(inputs[5].value != '')
    {
        return confirm(display);  
    }
}
</script>

you need to add two return in your code (both onclick attribute and inside del() function). You should also return something if your condition inputs[5].value != '' is false
