Still no luck, this is what I have:
$("a").click(function(){alertSave($(this).attr("href"));});
function alertSave(url) {
var dataControl = $('#changedAppointments').attr("value");
if (dataControl.length > 0) {
if (confirm("You have made changes to this date which have not
been
saved.\n\nAre you sure you want to navigate from this page?")) {
document.location = url;
} else return false;
}
}
