I Just wrote a page that does basic file management. For the Delete part I
used
<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
function confirmSubmit()
{
var agree=confirm("Deleted Files Cannot Be Recovered. Are You Sure?");
if (agree)
return true ;
else
return false ;
}
</script>
In my <Head> and
<Input Type=submit name=submit Value="Delete" onClick="return
confirmSubmit()">
In my form. I think that should do what you want.
