Send an "Are you sure?" question

[gjohnso]

I have a form and can add or remove steps and the tasks that go under them but the remove takes the data with it and there is no "un-do". My people would like the delete button to say something like "Are you sure  you want to delete this task? Data cannot be recovered after it is deleted." and be able to click "no" or "cancel" if they have clicked the remove button on accident.

// form1.page1.areYouSureBtn::click - (JavaScript, client)

var yesOrNo = xfa.host.messageBox("Are you sure?","Do Not Press That Button",2,2);

if (yesOrNo == 3) {

     xfa.host.messageBox("The answer is 'No'.","Negative Response",3);

}

else {

     if (yesOrNo == 4) {

          xfa.host.messageBox("The answer is 'Yes'.","Positive Response",3);

     }

}

messageBox
