confirming delete

you can do it with Javascripts (which am guessing your trying to use) by doing the following:

Response.Write ("<a href=""deleteStudent.asp?ID_No=" & rsStudents("uniqueRecordID")& """ onClick=""return confrim('Are you sure you want to delete this?';)"">")

when using Response.Write, you use the quotes to encase your 'string'. but if you want to acctually write a quotation mark in html, you need to put double quotes (as you can see in this example), as ASP will cancel it out, rather than ending the string when it gets to the first quote.

so just remember to always use double quotes when putting HTML in Reponse.Write.

well the code you posted, and i posted.

you will notice it has href=""delete, two quotation marks, this is to cancel it out, so the ASP wont process it as the end of the string.

and in my earlier post, i added, in read, the javascript for "confirming delete".
