    <p>I'm using jQuery with the validation plugin when I submit a form:</p> <pre><code>$('.frmProject:visible').validate( { errorContainer: ".site_details:visible .messageBox1", errorLabelContainer: ".site_details:visible .messageBox1 span.messagehere", invalidHandler: function(form, validator) { }, rules: { site_id: { required: true, } }, messages: { site_id: "Project has no assigned site information. Click the marker on the map at left to specify the site where this project took place." }, submitHandler: function(data) { SaveProject(); } }); </code></pre> <p>In the submitHandler,</p> <pre><code>function SaveProject(){ //... load variables with input contents $.ajax({ url: 'ajax/save_project.php', dataType: 'json', data: 'id='+id+'&amp;title='+title+'&amp;project='+project+'&amp;sector='+sector+'&amp;volunteer='+volunteer+'&amp;lat='+lat+'&amp;lng='+lng+'&amp;name='+name+'&amp;mun='+mun+'&amp;prov='+prov, success: function(data) { //... load 'messages' object with stuff $.each(messages, function(key, value) { if (confirm(key)){ console.log(item); } }); } }); } </code></pre> <p>When I submit the validated form and it gets to the confirm inside the each loop, I get the error message: "confirm is not a function".</p> <p>How can I present a message to the user for confirmation?</p> <p><strong>Edit:</strong></p> <p>When I type "confirm" into the console I get this:</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/DjGrT.png" alt="Screen capture of console output"></p> <p>Inspecting in DOM reveals:</p> <p><em>window > confirm() There are no properties to show for this object.</em></p> <p>Inspecting in Script takes me to a place in jquery-1.6.2.min.js</p>

    2. COI would guess that 1) something changed `window.confirm` or 2) there is a variable called `confirm`... it wouldn't hurt to see what `confirm` evaluates to.

Guidance
A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
