I have a table that contains a 'delete' link for each item, eg: javascript: void(0); Delete
This is the function that does the work: function deleteState(stateIdVal) { delText = $("#delete"+stateIdVal).text(); if (delText=="Delete") { $("#delete"+stateIdVal).text("Really delete?"); } else { //actual deletion stuff } } I just want to change the link text to that it has to be clicked twice for confirmation. $("#delete"+stateIdVal).text(); retrieves the text without problem but I get an error message when I try to set it. I've found information on how to change the attributes of a link, but not the text itself. Its always the really basic stuff that seems to trip me up. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Simple-delete-confirmation-tf2772121.html#a7732367 Sent from the JQuery mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/
