Lithium: Show confirm box when link is clicked

Question

I have a lithium Html helper link

<?php echo $this->html->link('Delete', array('action' => 'delete', 'args' => $id); ?>

When this link is clicked I would like a confirm box to show up, but I can't see anything in the documentation that would allow me to do this.

Is this possible?

Answer 1

As provided by Dvir Volk this can be solved using the following:

<?php echo $this->html->link('Delete', array('action' => 'delete', 'args' => $id), array('onclick', 'return confirm("Are you sure you wish to delete this item?")'); ?>

Answer 2

I would use jquery to add an event to it.

<?php echo $this->html->link (
    'Delete', 
    array(
        'action' => 'delete', 
        'args' => $id, 
        'class' => 'delete'
    )
); ?>

<script>
    $('a.delete').click(function(){
        confirm("Are you sure you wish to delete this item?");
    });
</script>
