Interacting with a javascript "confirm" box

[ianburgess]

I can display a javascript confirm box using following:
p_web.Script('var r=confirm("Press a button"); if (r==true) {{x="You pressed OK!";} else {{x="You pressed Cancel!";}')

However, I am not sure how I could then act on the selection in my Clarion code?

Your clarion code creates the JavaScript and sends it to the server.

The JavaScript then does another request if you want the action to go ahead.

Remember this is all completely asynchronous, so you need to think in a very request / response kind of way. (and remember each request starts a new thread...)

Thanks Bruce. I realise that there cannot be any direct communication and was thinking that maybe the javascript could set a session variable that could then be read? Is that possible and what javascript code would do that?
