I want to let a user confirm the submit button, before it is really submitted. What is the suggested way to let a dtml form be confirmed before submit? Something like "file will be changed, are you sure? (Y/N)"

Something Javascript-y?

Hi- Find the <FORM> tag in your code. e.g. <FORM ACTION="doStuff" METHOD="POST"> Add an onSubmit handler. e.g. <FORM ACTION="doStuff" METHOD="POST" onSubmit="confirm('Do you *really* want to do that?')"> If the user hits "OK", the form will be submitted. If they hit "Cancel", the browser will not submit the form. Keep in mind that if the user isn't using a JavaScript-compatible browser, they won't see anything. HTH, --Quentin
