I have Categories listed in a view. A delete category button is also there in the view which does work and deletes the category when clicked.
What I want to do is before deleting a category, a sweet alert dialog to pop up and ask for confirmation. If confirmed, it should go to the defined route and delete the category.
The delete link is defined like this:
<a id="delete-btn" href="{{ route('admin.categories.destroy', $category->id) }}" class="btn btn-danger">Delete</a>
and the script is defined like this:
<script>
$(document).on('click', '#delete-btn', function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
var link = $(this);
swal({
title: "Confirm Delete",
text: "Are you sure to delete this category?",
type: "warning",
showCancelButton: true,
confirmButtonColor: "#DD6B55",
confirmButtonText: "Yes, delete it!",
closeOnConfirm: true
},
function(isConfirm){
if(isConfirm){
window.location = link.attr('href');
}
else{
swal("cancelled","Category deletion Cancelled", "error");
}
});
});
</script>
However, when I click the delete button it deletes the category, but the sweet alert message doesn't show up.
The route is defined as following:
Route::get('/categories/destroy/{category}', [
'uses' => 'CategoriesController@destroy',
'as' => 'admin.categories.destroy',
]);
and the controller function is defined as:
public function destroy(Category $category)
{
$category->delete();
//this alert is working fine. however, the confirmation alert should appear
//before this one, which doesn't
Alert::success('Category deleted successfully', 'Success')->persistent("Close");
return redirect()->back();
}
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Try this one it worked out for me :)
document.querySelector('#promote').addEventListener('submit', function (e) {
let form = this;
e.preventDefault(); // <--- prevent form from submitting
swal({
title: "Promote Students",
text: "Are you sure you want to proceed!",
type: "warning",
showCancelButton: true,
// confirmButtonColor: '#3085d6',
cancelButtonColor: '#d33',
confirmButtonText: 'Yes, I am sure!',
cancelButtonText: "No, cancel it!",
closeOnConfirm: false,
closeOnCancel: false,
dangerMode: true,
}).then((willPromote) => {
e.preventDefault();
if (willPromote.value) {
form.submit(); // <--- submit form programmatically
} else {
swal("Cancelled", "No students have been promoted :)", "error");
e.preventDefault();
return false;
}
});
});

Write anchor in below way.
<a href="#" customParam="URL">Delete</a>
Now in URL select change href to customParam.
function (isConfirm) {
if (isConfirm) {
window.location = link.attr('customParam');
} else {
swal("cancelled", "Category deletion Cancelled", "error");
}
}
Basically in your case both href and event lisner are on click.

Try this:
<script>
var deleter = {
linkSelector : "a#delete-btn",
init: function() {
$(this.linkSelector).on('click', {self:this}, this.handleClick);
},
handleClick: function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
var self = event.data.self;
var link = $(this);
swal({
title: "Confirm Delete",
text: "Are you sure to delete this category?",
type: "warning",
showCancelButton: true,
confirmButtonColor: "#DD6B55",
confirmButtonText: "Yes, delete it!",
closeOnConfirm: true
},
function(isConfirm){
if(isConfirm){
window.location = link.attr('href');
}
else{
swal("cancelled", "Category deletion Cancelled", "error");
}
});
},
};
deleter.init();
</script>
EDIT: From your comment at @kalyan-singh-rathore's answer, I think you're not properly injecting the script in your blade template. If you're extending a base layout, make sure you've included the script or yielded it from a child layout.
