Hi Martin,
Take a look at collective.alerts.
It provides 'JQuery Alert Dialogs', one of them being a prompt which the
user must confirm or cancel.
If the user presses cancel, the form is not submitted.
I used it in collective.idashboard to provide prompts like: "Are you
sure you want to delete this portlet?"
On the pypi page is a link to Cory LaViska's docs for the original
JQuery plugin.
Cheers
JC
