Re: Reset not working when I use addEventListener

Show all headers | View raw

I found the reason I must change false to true in this event handler.
myForm.addEventListener( "reset",
>>      function()
>>      {
>>         return confirm( "Are you sure you want to reset?" );
>>      },
>>      false );
