My boss wants a confirmation box to pop up after clicking a Submit button in a
CFFORM. The button "deletes" records with the given parameters specified on
the form.

We have many accident-prone workers, and a simple "Ok or Cancel" confirmation
alert box isn't enough (says my boss). He wants an alert box with an input
field that we type "DELETE" into, and then pending whether the user types
DELETE or something else, will delete or cancel the request to delete.

something like
popup alert
Present message "Type DELETE to confirm"
If( message = 'DELETE')
delete the records
Else
cancel

Any help would be appreciated!!

Have you had any progress on this confirmation box? I am having a similar
issue, and need to do the same type of confirmation alert box.

I am still poking around to see what I can come up with, if I find anything
I'll post it here.

Thanks!!
