How to create a dialog with “yes” and “no” options?

Posted By: Anonymous

I am going to make a button to take an action and save the data into a database.

Once the user clicks on the button, I want a JavaScript alert to offer “yes” and “cancel” options. If the user selects “yes”, the data will be inserted into the database, otherwise no action will be taken.

How do I display such a dialog?

Solution

You’re probably looking for confirm(), which displays a prompt and returns true or false based on what the user decided:

if (confirm('Are you sure you want to save this thing into the database?')) {
  // Save it!
  console.log('Thing was saved to the database.');
} else {
  // Do nothing!
  console.log('Thing was not saved to the database.');
}
