Indeed, the second part of the code (with the alert) is executed irrespective of the outcome of the confirm prompt.<\/p>\n

The main difference with $.confirm<\/code> and VBA’s MsgBox<\/code>, is that MsgBox<\/code> is blocking the further execution of code, while $.confirm<\/code> does not do that. So that means that the code that follows it (the if (sResponse == 2)<\/code> part), is executed immediately. At that time no change was made to sResponse<\/code> (as no button was clicked), so that comes too early.<\/p>\n

However, $.confirm<\/code> accepts some functions as arguments, which will be called when a button is pressed on the popup. Actually, your code already passes such functions, but they don’t do anything else than setting sResult<\/code>. So you should move the second part of the code (with the alert) in such a function.<\/p>\n

First let’s format your code a bit so it becomes more readable, and you can better spot those callback functions:<\/p>\n

if ((sStatus).toUpperCase() != \"SUCCESFUL\") {\n    $.confirm({\n        title:  \"Confirmation\",\n        columnClass: 'col-md-6 col-md-offset-3', \n        content:\"Forecast calculation still busy. Results might not be accurate. Continue?\",\n        buttons: {\n            confirm: function() {\n                \/\/ This executes when button is clicked\n                sResponse= 1;\n            },\n            cancel: function() {\n                \/\/ This executes when button is clicked\n                sResponse= 2;\n                return;\n            }\n        }\n    });\n    \/\/ This executes immediately (without waiting for button click)\n    if (sResponse == 2  ){\n        $.alert({\n            title: \"INFORMATION\",\n            columnClass: 'col-md-6 col-md-offset-3',\n            content:(\"Screen will refresh. Please click on Update to try again.\").toString(),\n        });\n        document.getElementById(\"Smoke.Calc Status\").value= \"REFRESH\";\n        msErr = \"ABORT\";\n    }   \n}\n\/\/ Also this executes too early when confirm was executed:\nif (vMsg != \"\"){\n    $.alert({\n        title: 'Validation Message',\n        columnClass: 'col-md-6 col-md-offset-3',    \n        content:(vMsg),\n    });\n    msErr = \"ERROR\";\n}\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
I added comments to show where the important parts of the code are.<\/p>\n
Now move that second part inside<\/em> the callback function that relates to response #2:<\/p>\n
if (sStatus.toUpperCase() != \"SUCCESFUL\") {\n    $.confirm({\n        title:  \"Confirmation\",\n        columnClass: 'col-md-6 col-md-offset-3', \n        content:\"Forecast calculation still busy. Results might not be accurate. Continue?\",\n        buttons: {\n            confirm: function() {\n                sResponse= 1;\n                processMessage(); \/\/ <--- added this\n            },\n            cancel: function() {\n                sResponse= 2;\n                \/\/ Moved code here, as it needs to execute when Cancel is clicked\n                $.alert({\n                    title: \"INFORMATION\",\n                    columnClass: 'col-md-6 col-md-offset-3',\n                    content: \"Screen will refresh. Please click on Update to try again.\",\n                    \/\/ Code that should execute when alert is closed:\n                    onAction: function () {\n                        document.getElementById(\"Smoke.Calc Status\").value= \"REFRESH\";\n                        msErr = \"ABORT\";\n                        processMessage(); \/\/ <--- added this\n                    }\n                });\n            },\n        }\n    });\n} else { \/\/ <-- added\n    processMessage();\n}\n\nfunction processMessage() {\n    \/\/ Moved code in a function, as it should only execute after confirm\/alert is closed \n    if (vMsg != \"\") {\n        $.alert({\n            title: 'Validation Message',\n            columnClass: 'col-md-6 col-md-offset-3',    \n            content: vMsg,\n        });\n        msErr = \"ERROR\";\n    }\n}\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
I didn’t test this code, as it has dependencies I do not know of.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
