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 not being called

I am trying to use Bootbox within an Angular2 application. I have the following code:
bootbox.confirm({
message: "Are you sure you want to complete this action?",
buttons: {
confirm: {label: 'Yes', className: 'btn-success'},
cancel: {label: 'No', className: 'btn-danger'}
},
callback: function (result: any) {
console.log('Response equals: ' + result);
}
});
The confirm box displays correctly when called and when clicking on either the "yes" or "no" button the confirm box disappears as it should. However, the callback function is not firing because I'm not getting the console message.
This is my first attempt trying to inject Bootbox into an application so I'm not sure why the callback function is not being called.
Any ideas?

Have you tried with function(result) remove ':any'.
bootbox.confirm({
message: "This is a confirm with custom button text and color! Do you like it?",
buttons: {
confirm: {
label: 'Yes',
className: 'btn-success'
},
cancel: {
label: 'No',
className: 'btn-danger'
}
},
callback: function (result) {
console.log('This was logged in the callback: ' + result);
}
});

SweetAlert - how to disable auto-focus on initial opening?

I am using SweetAlert and I have custom buttons like this example:
swal("A wild Pikachu appeared! What do you want to do?", {
buttons: {
cancel: "Run away!",
catch: {
text: "Throw Pokéball!",
value: "catch",
},
defeat: true,
},
onOpen: function() { console.log("Test") } // this doesn't work
})
.then((value) => { ... });
However, on initial opening, it's focusing to the last button. Is there a way to cancel this auto-focus completely so on initial opening, it doesn't focus on any button?

As already suggested in comments, SweetAlert2 is more flexible solution, I recommend using it.
With onOpen parameter and getConfirmButton() method you can achieve the desired behavior:
Swal.fire({
input: 'text',
inputPlaceholder: 'I will not be autofocuses',
onOpen: () => Swal.getConfirmButton().focus()
})

handling Multiple buttons in $ionicPopup prompt

The documentation says:
Show a simple prompt popup, which has an input, OK button, and Cancel
button. Resolves the promise with the value of the input if the user
presses OK, and with undefined if the user presses Cancel.
I was doing:
$ionicPopup.prompt({
//options
}).then(function (userinput) {
//get userinput and send to server
});
I need to add a third button, but can't get the text of the input, how can I resolve the promise on the onTap event of the button to get the input?
$ionicPopup.prompt({
title: '¿Are you sure?',
inputType: 'text',
buttons: [
{ text: 'Cancel'
//close popup and do nothing
},
{
text: 'NO',
type: 'button-assertive',
onTap: function(e) {
//send to server response NO
}
},
{
text: 'YES',
type: 'button-energized',
onTap: function(e) {
//get user input and send to server
}
}]

See this demo i made with your code: http://play.ionic.io/app/ac79490c8914
prompt() is not meant to add more than two buttons,show() is used to make complex pop ups, Please see show() method in same documentation. As written in documentation, i am quoting:
Show a complex popup. This is the master show function
for all popups.
A complex popup has a buttons array, with each button having a text
and type field, in addition to an onTap function.
Your code will be like:
$scope.showPop = function(){
$scope.data = {};
var myPopup = $ionicPopup.show({
template: '<input type="text" ng-model="data.myData">',
title: '¿Are you sure?',
scope: $scope,
buttons: [
{ text: 'Cancel'
//close popup and do nothing
},
{
text: 'NO',
type: 'button-assertive',
onTap: function(e) {
return null;
}
},
{
text: 'YES',
type: 'button-energized',
onTap: function(e) {
return $scope.data.myData;
}
}]
});
myPopup.then(function(userinput) {
if(userinput){
console.log('returned data'+ userinput)
}
});
}
Simple thing about above code is that you have bind input with $scope (<input type="text" ng-model="data.myData">) so you can access it in any manner.

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" );
}
});
