I need some assistance creating a js prompt on my site.

i have a load of links on my site, which point to a delete page:

<a href="del.asp?section=ref&id=1">delete?</a>
<a href="del.asp?section=aaa&id=2">delete?</a>
<a href="del.asp?section=bbb&id=55">delete?</a>
<a href="del.asp?section=ccc&id=203">delete?</a>
etc..

I would like a javascript popup to appear when the link is clicked to prevent accidental deletion

ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO DELETE THIS?

YES/NO

if YES then go to the delete page, and if the user presses NO then stay on this page

i guess i need:
<a href="del.asp?section=zzz&id=203" onclick="doJSthingHERE">delete?</a>

can anyone provide the code for this?
thanks!

Try the following, replacing the parts in green to suit your needs:
<a href="URI" onclick="return confirm('Message');">text/image</a>

And by the waythe same concept could apply for a button too:

<input type="submit" name="btnDel" value="Delete" onclick="return confirm('Are you sure you want to delete this record?');">

Thanks - kind of strange but it really seems to work.
