jQTouch alert/confim - jqtouch

Question

I am trying to implement alert/confirm with jQTouch.
Has anyone worked on it, please help me in solving this.
Thanks in advance

Answer 1

So, the way I found works is this:
$('.selector').bind('tap', function(){
var confirm_result = confirm('Are you sure you want to submit?');
if(confirm_result != true){
return false;
}
});
If the user hits 'Cancel', the page will remain exactly where it is. You may also have to remove the active class from the selector (which, in my use-case, was an <a> element). That element should have an href set to the page which you want to navigate to next.
I realize this is probably way past the statute of limitations for this question, but I figure anyone who comes here looking for the answer will stand to benefit.

Answer 2

I'm trying to do something similar and initially found jGrowl which is a jQuery plugin. Unfortunately jQTouch doesn't appear to play nice with jGrowl which to be honest felt a little hefty anyway for use in a jQTouch app.
Digging a little further I finally found a reference to floaty which is included in the extensions folder of the standard jQTouch release (doh).
Check out this post for a useful example. Sorry, domain expired, post has disappeared. But you can check out the floaty demo.
