Confirm button still updates changes even after cancel is clicked.

You need to return false; when cancel is clicked

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function confirmation() {
      var answer = confirm("Submit ?")
      if (answer){
            alert("Updated Succesfully")
            parent.window.location = "index2.asp";
      }
      else{
            alert("Not Submitted!")
            parent.window.location = "index.asp";
            return false;
      }
}
//-->
</script>

Select allOpen in new window

Is this what you are looking for?

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function confirmation() {
      var answer = confirm("Submit ?")
      if (answer){
            alert("Updated Succesfully")
            parent.window.location = "index2.asp";
      }
      else{
            alert("Not Submitted!")
            parent.window.location = "index.asp";
            return false;
      }
}
//-->
</script>

Are you calling the function from the form like:

<form action="whatever" onsubmit="return confirmation()">

Hello guys that still doesn't seem to work.

This is what I have at the bottom of the form:

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function confirmation() {
      var answer = confirm("Submit ?")
      if (answer){
            alert("Updated Succesfully")
            parent.window.location = "index2.asp";
      }
      else{
            alert("Not Submitted!")
            parent.window.location = "index.asp";
            return false;
      }
}
//-->
</script>

          <input type="button" class="Cancel_Button" onclick="parent.location='index.asp'" value='Cancel &amp; Close' /></td>
            <td width="25%" align="left"><input  name="Update" type="submit" class="go_button" id="Update" onclick="confirmation()" value="Update" /></td>
          </tr>
        </table>
      &nbsp;
 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />
      <input type="hidden" name="MM_update" value="form1" />
      <input type="hidden" name="MM_recordId" value="<%= RSRockers.Fields.Item("ID").Value %>" />
      </form>
</td>

Thank you.

The attached will keep the browser from redirecting, but not sure if that is what you are looking for

<script type="text/javascript">
function confirmation() {
      var answer = confirm("Submit ?")
      if (answer){
            alert("Updated Succesfully")
            parent.window.location = "index2.asp";
      }
      else{
            alert("Not Submitted!")
            return false;
			parent.window.location = "index.asp";
      }
}
</script>

Good point why are you redirecting on cancel it is this stopping the return false; working

I must be doing something wrong.
Regardless of selecting cancel to the Update Alert Box after clicking update, the record is changed.

What I hoped for was to let the user ascertain on whether they want to make the change they had just did before adding it to the database. If they say "cancel", nothing gets updated. If they are certain then it updates. But is seems to update regardless.
