For a simple form with an alert that asks if fields were filled out correctly, I need a function that does this:
I think a JavaScript confirm would work but I can\'t seem to figure out how.
The code I have now is:
<script>
function show_alert() {
alert(\"xxxxxx\");
}
</script>
<form>
<input type=\"image\" src=\"xxx\" border=\"0\" name=\"submit\" onclick=\"show_alert();\"
alt=\"PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!\" value=\"Submit\">
</form>
A simple inline JavaScript confirm would suffice:
<form onsubmit=\"return confirm(\'Do you really want to submit the form?\');\">
No need for an external function unless you are doing validation, which you can do something like this:
<script>
function validate(form) {
// validation code here ...
if(!valid) {
alert(\'Please correct the errors in the form!\');
return false;
}
else {
return confirm(\'Do you really want to submit the form?\');
}
}
</script>
<form onsubmit=\"return validate(this);\">
function show_alert() {
if(confirm(\"Do you really want to do this?\"))
document.forms[0].submit();
else
return false;
}
You could use the JS confirm function.
<form onSubmit=\"if(!confirm(\'Is the form filled out correctly?\')){return false;}\">
<input type=\"submit\" />
</form>

<form onsubmit=\"return confirm(\'Do you really want to submit the form?\');\">
OK, just change your code to something like this:
<script>
function submit() {
return confirm(\'Do you really want to submit the form?\');
}
</script>
<form onsubmit=\"return submit(this);\">
<input type=\"image\" src=\"xxx\" border=\"0\" name=\"submit\" onclick=\"show_alert();\"
alt=\"PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!\" value=\"Submit\">
</form>
Also this is the code in run, just I make it easier to see how it works, just run the code below to see the result:
function submitForm() {
return confirm(\'Do you really want to submit the form?\');
}
<form onsubmit=\"return submitForm(this);\">
<input type=\"text\" border=\"0\" name=\"submit\" />
<button value=\"submit\">submit</button>
</form>
