That HTML works correctly for me on IE7, I don't know what's going on to make it continue even if you click Cancel. Returning false for any event handler in JavaScript should be enough to stop the default action on practically any browser that supports JavaScript.
<br><br>Obviously, something isn't working, but I don't know what it is. Jifty's doing the right thing here.<br><br>I just created a test page empty but for that HTML and it didn't attempt to jump to the other page after clicking the link when I hit Cancel on the dialog, but did jump when I hit OK the second time.
