Hello,

is there any php function to create a MessageBox like the following javascript function does?

if(confirm('Are you sure you want to delete tihs record?')) {
document.write('OK');
}
else {
document.write('NOOO!');
}

Of course I want that the value of the click will be returned into a php $variable.

Thanks in advance.

if(confirm('Are you sure you want to delete tihs record?')) {
document.write("<?php $variable = 'OK' ?>");
}
else {
document.write("<?php $variable = 'NOOO!!!' ?>");
}

mmmm, it's not so simple.

file confirmation_1.php
<html>
<head>
</head>

<body>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="confirmation_2.php">confirmation_2.php</a></p>
</body>
</html>


file confirmation_2.php
<html>
<head>
</head>

<body>

<script language="javascript">
if(confirm('Are you sure you want to delete tihs record?')) {
document.write("<?php $variable = 'OK' ?>");
}
else {
document.write("<?php $variable = 'NOOO!!!' ?>");
}
</script>

<?php
echo "$variable";
?>

</body>
</html>

Whichever you click you get always as result in $variable the second value
$variable='NOOO!!!'

Here is a solution that I have already used several times. It is almost the same as the one presented by peejavery.

I have a button

print("<input type=button name=B_supp_conf value=\"Delete\" "
." onClick=\"action_supp('".rawurlencode($record_number)."')\">");

And I have a little form

$form_supp = <<<eod_supp
<script language="JavaScript">
<form name=f_supp action=$HTTP_SERVER_VARS['PHP_SELF'] method=post>
<input type=hidden name=H_record_number value="">
<input type=hidden name=H_supp value="S">
</form>
<script language="JavaScript">
function action_supp(record_number) {
document.f_supp.H_record_number=record_number;
if (confirm('Are you sure you want to delete this record? '))
f_supp.submit();
return true;
}
</script>
eod_supp;
print($form_supp);

Then I have that piece of code to delete the record

if (isset($_POST['H_supp'])) {
$record_number = $_POST['H_record_number'];
...
}

Maybe you don't need to pass the record number.
I put these three pieces of code in the same php file.
