How to develop confirmation dialog with yes no button using jquery or any other method ? I need that confirmation when I click on submit button.

Answer 1

This will give you both a native JS and jQuery version:

function confirm_action( strMessage ) {
    strMessage = (typeof strMessage !== 'undefined') ? strMessage : 'Are you sure you want to do this?';
    return !!confirm( strMessage );
}

$.fn.confirm_action = function ( strMessage ) {
    $(this).click( function(){
        return confirm_action( strMessage );
    });
};

Two different ways to use it. These work on links or Submit inputs.

JavaScript:

jQuery:

$('#mybutton').confirm_action();

Note that in either version you can customize the confirmation message by passing a string parameter.
