Javascript Confirm popup Yes, No button instead of OK and Cancel

Question

Javascript Confirm popup, I want to show Yes, No button istead of OK and Cancel. I have use vbscript code

<script language="javascript">
    function window.confirm(str) {
        execScript('n = msgbox("' + str + '","4132")', "vbscript");
        return (n == 6);
    }
</script>

this only work in IE, In FF and Chrome, it does't work. Does there any workround to acheive this in Javascript.

I also want to chagne the title of popup like in IE 'Windows Internet Explorer' is shown, I want to show here my own application name.

Answer 1

Unfortunately, there is no cross-browser support for opening a confirmation dialog that is not the default OK/Cancel pair. The solution you provided uses VBScript, which is only available in IE.

I would suggest using a Javascript library that can build a DOM-based dialog instead. Try Jquery UI: http://jqueryui.com/

Answer 2

The only way you can accomplish this in a cross-browser way is to use a framework like jQuery UI and create a custom Dialog:

http://jqueryui.com/demos/dialog/

It doesn't work in exactly the same way as the built-in confirm popup but you should be able to make it do what you want.

Answer 3

You can't do this cross-browser with the confirm() function or similar. I highly suggest you use something like the jQuery UI dialog feature to create an HTML dialog box instead.

Answer 4

"Paid for by jQuery UI," I gather...

Answer 5

use jQuery Alert http://abeautifulsite.net/blog/2008/12/jquery-alert-dialogs/#demo

$.alerts.okButton = ' Yes ';
$.alerts.cancelButton = ' No ';

see file jquery.alerts.js to change other properties. Thanks...
