If you use ui-router, the cancel or accept button replace the url. To prevent this you can return false in each case of the conditional sentence like this:

app.directive('confirmationNeeded', function () {
  return {
    link: function (scope, element, attr) {
      var msg = attr.confirmationNeeded || "Are you sure?";
      var clickAction = attr.confirmedClick;
      element.bind('click',function (event) {
      if ( window.confirm(msg) )
        scope.$eval(clickAction);
      return false;
    });
  }
}; });
