However, some web report users may wish that a prompt box will appear after clicking the submitting button, and users can decide whether to submit data by clicking Ok or Cancel. With this prompt box, users can avoid incorrect manipulations.

Next, we will learn how to make a prompt box for data submitting in input report.

1. Prompt box must be realized with Javascript. Therefore, we need to write lines of javascript codes and insert them into the JSP used for releasing the report.
