Adding "Are you sure you are ok?....." confirmation on a button

Hi,

 

I have a button that will update a field on an object. I want to do it only when the user clicks the "OK/YES" button on the confirmation window.

How can I achieve this in in visual force.

 

My sample starting code as follows:

 

--------------

<apex:page Controller="UpdateOutboundFlag" tabStyle="Master_Config__c">
  <!-- Begin Default Content REMOVE THIS -->
   
  <apex:ListViews type="Master_Config__c" />
  <apex:form >     
      <apex:pageBlock >
          <apex:commandButton action="{!save}" value="Update config info." id="theButton" onclick="var x=window.confirm('Are you sure you are ok?')
;"/>
      </apex:pageBlock>
  </apex:form>
</apex:page>

Write Javascript function and put this line to that function and compare the variable value to 

 

'Yes'  or 'No' if its Yes the return true and vice versa.

 

var x=window.confirm('Are you sure you are ok?

 

and make function call from the button like

 

onclick = ' return name_of_the_function()'

 

 

I hopw this will work for you

  </apex:form>
</apex:page>

 I need to prevent updating the Export_Flag__c field in Master_Config__c if the 'Are you sure' answer is No
