PHP Javascript Link

Question

I have this link:

echo"<a href=\"$urlHTML\" onclick="return confirm('Please Confirm You Wish to Add these Details')">Delete</a>";

It is used to pass a stripped character link to a page, but before doing so a javascript function is employed to get the user to confirm they want to proceed. Basically, on the link above I'm getting the following error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_RETURN, expecting ',' or ';' in E:\xampp\htdocs\IDB\delete.php on line 411.

If anyone could tell me where I'm going wrong that would be great!

make it like this

 echo"<a href=\"$urlHTML\" onclick=\"return confirm('Please Confirm You Wish to Add these Details')\">Delete</a>";

You have forgot to escape the inner double quotes of onclick.
