I have a delete button that is tied to some comments on a page i have. When you click the delete button i am trying to get a confirm dialog box to pop up asking if you are sure you want to delete the comment. Clicking OK should run the function to delete the comment and clicking cancel should not run the function but simply close the dialog box.

This is my code:

onclick=confirm('Are you sure that you want to delete this comment?'); commentDelete(1);

My problem: When i click cancel the delete function still runs. My guess is that the function is still getting called because when i click cancel it just is stepping forward in the JavaScript and calling the function. How can i accomplish this correctly? I know this is probably a simple problem. Thanks for any help!
