Hello everyone. I am using a DataGrid to display files and folders and have buttons to add folder, delete folder, delete file but I want to add a confirmation popup dialog for when a delete button is pressed. I found one example but it uses the MX FileSystemDataGrid and I couldn't figure out how to extrapolate from that example and apply it to my use. Below is my code, hoping someone can suggest how I can do it.

protected function deleteFolder_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
			{
				var dir:File = File.documentsDirectory.resolvePath(folderName.text);
				dir.deleteDirectory();
				folderName.text = "";
				file.getDirectoryListingAsync();
				folderList.refresh();
				list.dataProvider = folderList;
			}
			
			protected function deleteFile_clickHandler(event:MouseEvent):void
			{
				var delFile:File = this.filelist.selectedItem.file as File;
				delFile.deleteFile();
				currentFile.getDirectoryListingAsync();
				fileList.removeAll();
				fileList.refresh();
				filelist.dataProvider = fileList;
				
			}

You have those methods set up as the event handlers for the delete buttons. Why don't you create a different method to sit in-between? So your click handler for the delete button goes to a new showConfirmationDialog() method, with an okay button. The click handler for the okay button should be your current delete method. Make sense?

So build an alert dialog rather than just using Alert.dialog?

You could do either approach. There's the PromptDialog class which would be the native dialog control to use.

Thanks I'm going to take a look at this class.
