Re: Js (Jquery) Helper Confirm before Request

Fantastic! It's a tad different. With the Js helper, it's 'before' not
'beforeSend' and I don't need the function in the before code, just
'return confirm("are you sure?");'.

But you were pretty close considering you don't even use the Js
Helper.

Thank you so much!
