Confirmation of Node Command

Francisco_Alcala-Soler_(iaea_001user3_-_(deleted))

Hi,I have created a node command and action for the Functions Menu of a node and would like it to prompt the user for confirmation when it's executed. I have seen that there is a Confirm() script inherited from the WebNodeCmd object, but when I make it return a string, as it instructs, the user is not prompted for confirmation.The command/action is working properly otherwise. Would anybody know how to implement this? The effect I want is similar to that of the DELETE Function, which asks "Delete this object?" The only difference is that I want it triggered conditionally, not in all cases when the command is executed.(Livelink 9.1.0 on Win 2000 SP2, SQL Server 2000 SP2).Thanks, Curro

That is a bug of the functions menu introduced in LL version 9.x. Opentext has hard coded the confirmation of Delete and no longer calls the "Confirm()" method of a WebNodeCmd.Martin

Thanks for the info, Martin.I can see where that confirmation pop-up has been implemented for the Delete WebNodeCmd: WEBDOC.DocNodeCmd.Delete.Confirm()Would you (or anybody) know how to add a second confirmation to that same command? What I'd like to do now is to check certain conditions and ask for a second confirmation, as requested by our users. Is there a way to override the WebNodeCmd the same way I could override the Action on my own module?Thanks again, Curro

Hi,I have made 2 new action objects Delete and Delete2.Delete asks the user for confirmation and Delete2 makes the real deletion. These 2 actions will be used by livelink instead of the script "Action-Delete" of a WebNode object.Hope this HelpsMartin
