Ok / Cancel window - link

[Tom Dunne]

Hi there,
im having a problem linking to my class when the user clicks the ok button of a JavaScript Confirm window. Here is my problem.
<% out.println("<script language=\"JavaScript\">"); %>
function rusure() {
question = confirm("Are you sure you want to delete this document")
if(question !="0") {
location.href= "DocumentCommand.class?id=<%= primaryKey %>&command=DEL"
}
}
<% out.println("</script>");%>
Ok my problem is that the location.href does not allow the string to contain the %> after i display the value for the primary key therefore the &command=DEL never gets past to the url. It seems JavaScript doesnt like the JSP tags. Is there anyway i can get this to link using this JavaScript function ?? Please Help..... Thanks Tom.

This may not be what you are trying to do. But I did something similar with...
<A HREF="/location/csd?widget=daddr&seqnbr=<%=patientAddress.getSequenceNbr()%>" onClick="return verifyDelete(); ">DELETE</A>

Or you can split the first scriptlet into two smaller scriptlets.
<% out.println("<script language=\"JavaScript\">"); %>
function rusure() {
question = confirm("Are you sure you want to delete this document")
if(question !="0") {
location.href= "DocumentCommand.class?id=%>
<%= primaryKey %>
<%&command=DEL"
}
}%>
<% out.println("</script>");%>
But really, you don't need scriptlets at all. You can simply type your javascript code and add the expression to it.
