How to confirm clicking on a link using jQuery

Question

I have many links in a HTML-table, which delete corresponding row, when clicked (calling a PHP-script via GET parameter).

They all have a class delete_row

Answer 1

you can use preventDefault method of the event object in the handler function:

jQuery('.delete_row').click(function(event){
     if(!confirm('Really Delete?')){
         event.preventDefault();
     }
})
