将值从JavaScript确认传递到Codeigniter Controller

Question

I am new to JavaScript and Codeigniter. I want to know how to pass the JavaScript confirmation (Yes/No) to Codeigniter Controller.

For Example I have a link

Update all records. (how to link this?).

Once the user click it, there's a pop-up message that says Are you sure?. If yes then it will be passed to controller/model and do the updates if no it will stay on the same page.

Or can somebody teach me other approach?

Answer 1

You can submit a form using a link like this:

<a href="javascript:{}" onclick="formanName.submit();"> linktext </a>

to ask for confirmation before sending, you can try:

<a href="javascript:{}" onclick="if(confirm('Message?')) { formName.submit();}"> linktext </a>

where formName is the name of the form you want to submit. I hope that helps.
