I have this script:

[highlight="javascript"]
<script type='text/javascript'>

function confirm_delete(uname,id){

var ask_delete = confirm("Delete user " + uname + "?")
if(ask_delete){

window.location = "index.php?act=members&action=delete&id=" + id;

}

}

</script>
[/highlight]

And here's the function thingy:


confirm_delete('Jaan', '1');

But it don't work.. Maybe someone can tell me what's wrong.
My Firebug says that it's a syntax error.. but I'm not that genius to fix it :D

</script>

Maybe it's the fact that this line:

var ask_delete = confirm("Delete user " + uname + "?")

.. doesn't end in a semi-colon.

Well, if it still works if you execute it server-side, then fine by me. :)

Javascript is quite simple :) I never use to like it, but then I grew to love it :)

And there's always the fact that the syntax is pretty similar, save for variables and the concatenation operator. JavaScript does get annoying when you consider that, unlike PHP, you never know just how it is going to work out when it executes on the client machine.

Yep. One thing I don't like about JS, it doesn't show errors. It either works or it doesn't, unless you use a JavaScript debugger. Unlike PHP, it shows errors all the time.
