Just reiterating over what the others have said (plus expanding), and
just a bit cleaner.
<SCRIPT language="JavaScript">
<!--
function deleteRecord(recordName, recordID)
{
if (confirm("Do you really want to delete "+ recordName+"?"){
window.location = "/delete.php?id="+recordID;
}
}
//-->
</SCRIPT>
<!-- and your html will be like this (obviously change your var names as
per your script -->
<A HREF="javascript:deleteRecord('<?= $recordName ?>','<?=
$recordID ?>');"><?= $recordName ?></A>

> {
> window.location="http://detination";;

> else
> {
> window.location="http://original";;
> }
> }
> //-->
> </SCRIPT>
> <A HREF="javascript:go_there()">New Page</A>
>
> my question is how to integrate the javascript with php, the sample
