Confirm Popup 1

[Nebooaw]

Hi, i have a drop down list with 3 values (1,2&3)

The default selected value is set like...

<%if Priority = 1 then response.write "selected"%>

I want a confirm dialog to pop up if the user changes the current slection. If the user selects ok, then the new value is set. if cancel is selected then the old value is put back.

Can anyone help?

this is what i was trying to do...

<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
function confirmChange()
{
var agree=confirm("Are you sure you wish to continue?");
if (agree)
	return true ;
else
	return false ;
	document.form1.Priority.value = "3";
}
</script>

Kindest thanks.

I have tried both of the methods above but i have to select ok or cancel twice before the dialog goes away. Any ideas?

kind regards.

Function, slightly cleaned up, but the same as chessbot's:

<!--
function confirmChange() {
    if (confirm("Are you sure you wish to continue?")) {
        return true;
    } else {
        document.form1.Priority.selectedIndex = 2;
        return false;
    }
}
-->

Way to call the function:

<select name="Priority" onchange="[red]return [/red]confirmChange();">
