How to use sweetalert / swal correctly?

I am new in Javascript / jQuery. I want to show some alert message using 'sweetalert' library and based on the user response the function will either return or continue.
Here is my implementation :
jQuery("#some_exchnage_request_form").on( 'submit', function(e){
// some implementation
// Now showing the alert
jQuery.getScript('https://unpkg.com/sweetalert/dist/sweetalert.min.js', function() {
swal({
title: "Do you want Continue ? ",
text: "You need to pay extra amount",
icon: "success",
buttons: true,
confirmButtonColor: '#C64EB2',
})
.then((willSubmit) => {
if (!willSubmit) {
return false;
}
});
});
// rest of the code
});
Here the expectation is if the user select 'cancel' button the function should return false, otherwise on selecting 'ok' button 'rest of the code' portion to be executed.
But here problem is the code doesn't stop for the user input and just continue. The alert box is displayed but it ignore the user selection.
I know implementation is wrong, but not sure what would be the correct way to do this.
Thanks!!

You need to use Swal.fire(); to make it work.
https://sweetalert2.github.io/
jQuery("#some_exchnage_request_form").on( 'submit', function(e){
// some implementation
// Now showing the alert
e.preventDefault();
jQuery.getScript('https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/sweetalert2#11', function() {
Swal.fire({
title: 'Do you want Continue ?',
text: "You need to pay extra amount",
icon: 'success',
showCancelButton: true,
confirmButtonColor: '#C64EB2',
cancelButtonColor: '#d33',
confirmButtonText: 'Yes'
}).then((result) => {
if (result.isConfirmed) {
Swal.fire(
'Confirmed!',
'You agreed to pay extra amount.',
'success'
)
} else {
console.log('clicked cancel');
}
})
})
// rest of the code
});
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<form id="some_exchnage_request_form">
<input type="submit">
</form>

There are similar questions and looks like it is a limitation of 'sweetalert' that execution doesn't stop for user input unlike alert()/confirm() in js.

Sweet alert not returning true or false?

Sweet-alert not returning the true or false after calling this get_alert() function please suggest some suggestions how could we able to work this
function get_alert() {
$('#removeactive').on('click', function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
var message = $(this).data('confirm');
//pop up
swal({
title: "Are you sure ??",
text: message,
icon: "warning",
buttons: true,
dangerMode: true,
})
.then(function(isConfirm) {
console.log(isConfirm == true);
if (isConfirm == true) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
});
});
}
<button id="removeactive" data-confirm="Are you sure?" type="button">Click</button>

You should not need a function to assign an event handler. Also you have not told us when you call get_alert. Calling get_alert will NOT show the alert, only assign the handler
Here I run on load of the page
If the removeactive element is dynamic, you need to change to
$(document).on('click','#removeactive', function(e) {
or better:
$(document).on('click','.removeactive', function(e) {
so any element with that class can call the alert
You also need to remove active where you know the status of the isConfirm
Here is a working example
$(function() { // on page load
$('#removeactive').on('click', function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
var message = $(this).data('confirm');
//pop up
swal({
title: "Are you sure ??",
text: message,
icon: "warning",
buttons: true,
dangerMode: true,
})
.then(function(isConfirm) {
console.log("confirmed?", isConfirm);
if (isConfirm) console.log("deleting"); // here you delete
else console.log("cancelled"); // here you do whatever or nothing
// You cannot return anything
});
});
})

<button id="removeactive" data-confirm="This will remove the active widget from the sprocket" type="button">Click</button>

re-execute button click after event.preventDefault();

I am generating rows dynamically for a table using ASP.NET Core Razor Pages and each row has a Delete button without button ID.
example of generated HTML for a row:
<button onclick="return DeleteRowConfirm(event);" data-ajax="true" data-ajax-method="GET" data-ajax-begin="AjaxOnBegin" data-ajax-complete="AjaxOnComplete" data-ajax-failure="failed" data-ajax-update="#div_BusyIndicator" href="/ApproveNumber/a10b0c7a?handler=DeleteRow">Delete Row</button>
on button click I am using bootbox.js to confirm using this code:
function DeleteRowConfirm(e) {
e.preventDefault();
bootbox.confirm({
message: "Delete Row?",
buttons: {
confirm: {
label: 'Yes',
className: 'btn-success'
},
cancel: {
label: 'No',
className: 'btn-danger'
}
},
callback: function (result) {
if (result === false) {
}
else {
//$(this).trigger(e.type); //Doe not working
}
}
});
}
I would like to execute the "Button Click" if the user press "Yes".
I have tried $(this).trigger(e.type); but it does not working.

I solved the problem with the help of #mousetail and "Pooma" from this link https://stackoverflow.com/a/48018708
I have replaced button element to element and for onclick I have set event.preventDefault(); event.stopImmediatePropagation(); DeleteRowConfirm(event);
at DeleteRowConfirm function when callback is true I have removed the onclick from the element so it does not loop with bootbox popup and than trigger the click event.
$(e.target).removeAttr('onclick');
$(e.target).trigger(e.type);

Make jQuery click on a button when someone has confirmed (dialog box)

I have a wordpress auction site and wanted to add a confirm dialog with jquery when someone clicks on the "bid" button. I can achieve this with the default system dialog but I want a more custom dialog box with jQuery. How can I make it click the bid button once the end user has confirmed the bid?
Here is the code example:
<button type="submit" class="bid_button button alt"><?php echo wp_kses_post( apply_filters( 'bid_text', esc_html__( 'Bid', 'auctions-for-woocommerce' ), $product ) ); ?></button>
<script>
jQuery('button').confirm({
title: 'titletext',
content: 'content text"',
type: 'red',
buttons: {
ok: {
text: "OK",
btnClass: 'btn-primary',
keys: ['enter'],
action: function(){
console.log('Brukeren bekreftet "OK"');
}
},
No: function(){
text: "No",
jQuery.alert('Kansellert!');
console.log('the user clicked cancel');
}
}
});
</script>

it seems like this libary is not created for submitting forms via button, more like using it for <a> tags, source - https://github.com/craftpip/jquery-confirm/issues/229
I thought i will give you still a way to solve your problem.
now i am preventing the default behavior from the button when its not confirmed and trigger it again when its confirmed, but this time the button can submit the form.
Also added the id submitButton to your button for making it individual.
<button type="submit" id="submitButton" class="bid_button button alt"></button>
<script>
var confirmed = false;
$('#submitButton').on('click', function() {
if (!confirmed) {
event.preventDefault();
$.confirm({
title: 'titletext ',
content: 'content text"',
type: 'red',
buttons: {
ok: {
text: "OK",
btnClass: 'btn-primary',
keys: ['enter'],
action: function() {
confirmed = true;
$('#submitButton').click()
console.log('Brukeren bekreftet "OK"');
}
},
No: function() {
text: "No",
jQuery.alert('Kansellert!');
console.log('the user clicked cancel');
}
}
})
} else {
confirmed = false
}
})
</script>
hope I could help you. :)

Bootbox: Callback function after dismissing the dialog / Clicking on the 'X' button

The following snippet allows me to perform stuff in a callback function for the buttons that are clicked. However, how can I get a callback function, or a similar workaround such that I can perform some code when a user clicks on the 'X' button/dismisses the dialog?
bootbox.dialog({
title: "Woah this acts like an alert",
message: "Cool info for you. You MUST click Ok.",
buttons: {
sucess:{
label: "Ok",
callback: callback
}
}
});
callback(){//stuff that happens when they click Ok.}
I do not want to disable/hide the close button with
closeButton: false,

There is onEscape function for this.
bootbox.dialog({
message: 'the msg',
title: "Title",
onEscape: function() {
// you can do anything here you want when the user dismisses dialog
}
});

You can use a variable to check if the modal was hidden after a click on OK or x button / escape key
var status = false;
$('.btn').on('click', function () {
bootbox.dialog({
title: "Woah this acts like an alert",
message: "Cool info for you. You MUST click Ok.",
buttons: {
sucess: {
label: "Ok",
callback: function () {
status = true;
}
}
},
onEscape: function () {
$('.bootbox.modal').modal('hide');
}
});
});
$(document).on("hidden.bs.modal", ".bootbox.modal", function (e) {
callback();
});
function callback() {
if (!status) {
onClose();
} else {
onOK();
status = false;
}
}
function onClose() {
$('p.alert span').removeClass().addClass('text-danger').text("Dismissed");
}
function onOK() {
$('p.alert span').removeClass().addClass('text-success').text("Sucess");
}
Fiddle demo

Some people might see this as a bit of a hack-around. Although it suits me fine as all I wanted to acknowledge as a developer that someone accepted the message, which triggered the next event.
Using Bootbox.js' native confirm() method which does supply a callback action. I added an additional class as an option to the confirm button (which must be supplied on a confirm() call) with the hidden classname (E.g. Bootstap has a helper class for display:none called hidden.
This hides the confirm button, thus the Modal appears as a normal Alert box.
bootbox.confirm({
message: "Some Button Text",
buttons: {
"cancel": {
label: "<i class='fa fa-check'></i> OK - I understand",
className: "btn btn-primary"
},
//Hide the required confirm button.
"confirm": { label: "", className: "hidden" }
},
callback: function(){
//Begin Callback
alert( "Finished" );
}
});
