Return Value from confirmation popup.

i have a submit button that when selected, will call the function verifySave().
VerifySave will confirm with a popup.

echo '<INPUT TYPE=submit VALUE="Save" NAME="generic_savebutton" 
ONCLICK="verifySave()"/>';

PHP:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="Javascript" TYPE="text/javascript">
  function verifySave()
  {
     msg = "Are you sure you want to save this data?";
     return confirm(msg);
  }

Code (markup):

I need to know the syntax on how to check the return value from the verifySave() method. If user selects ok, i need to set a $_SESSION variable.

Anyone help?

 

Not really a PHP question, but here you go!


// form...

echo "<input type='hidden' value='0' id='set_this' name='set_this' />";
echo "<input type='submit' value='Save' name='generic_savebutton' onclick=\"fire('set_this');\" />";

Code (markup):

// js

<script type='text/javascript'>
<!--//
	function fire(el)
	{
		if ( confirm( 'Are you sure you want to save this data?' ) )
		{
			document.getElementById(el).value = 1;

			return ( true );
		}
		else
		{
			return ( false );
		}
	}
// -->
</script>
