How can the delete function in PHP be improved to prompt for confirmation before deleting a record?

To improve the delete function in PHP to prompt for confirmation before deleting a record, you can add a JavaScript confirmation dialog box that asks the user to confirm the deletion. This will prevent accidental deletions and provide a safety measure for important data. 

<?php
// Check if the delete button is clicked
if(isset($_POST['delete'])){
    // Display a JavaScript confirmation dialog
    echo '<script>
            if(confirm("Are you sure you want to delete this record?")){
                // If confirmed, proceed with deletion
                // Add your delete logic here
            }
          </script>';
}
?>
