Are you loading the jQuery library? If so, then you I would place that function in another javascript file and load it immediately after loading the jQuery library. Your anchor tag looks to be correct.

[eluser]gayathri[/eluser]
no, i didn't load jquery, so is there any other way to do this?

[eluser]Michael Wales[/eluser]
Use this code sample:

Code:

<a href="[removed]if(confirm('Are you sure ?')) location.href=''">Delete</a>

Honestly, I would take the jQuery route - it's less obtrusive and will degredate gracefully if the user doesn't have Javascript enabled. Getting jQuery running is very easy just search these forums and check out the jQuery website.

Or any other javascript library that allows unobtrusive code, to keep the peace

But it's not the only benefit. Keeping the javascript generated sentences, but also html code, centralized your code is easier to maintain and extend. I'm thinking about multilanguage, styled popups, and other goodies like the confirmer plugin

[eluser]xwero[/eluser]
but if you insist on using inline javascript i think this snippet is better

Code:

&lt;a href="http://codeigniter.com" onclick="javascriptt:if(!confirm('Are you sure ?')) return false"&gt;Delete</a>
