This program is designed to bring up a Java Script Confirm box when 
a user leaves your web site through a link on your site. If the user 
clicks on OK, he or she is taken to that site.  If they click on 
cancel, they are returned to the previous web page on your site.

Configuration is easy.  Simply replace "http://www.target_url.html" 
in both the Java Script section and the html body with the URL that you 
want to take the user to.  Then, replace "http://www.previous_url.html" 
with the relative or exact url that the user just come from. Next, go to 
the web page that the link is on and change that link to point to the 
confirm.html file.  When the user clicks on a link on this page, they 
get the confirm box, which tells them that they are leaving your site if 
they click OK, that they can use their browser back button to return to 
your site and they will return to the previous page if they click on Cancel.

The link in the html body section is designed for older browsers or those 
that have Java Script turned off.  You can have a confirm.html file for 
various links simply by naming them differently.  For example, a link to 
amazon.com could be called amazon_confirm.html, etc.
