confirmation button

new control variant for BBj - the confirmation button - the anatomy of the confirmation button is to click twice in order to trigger the final click event - The difference to a doubleclick behavior is the changing button text after the first click asking the user if he is really sure. - With the leave of the button control is the text gonna be resetted and the inner confirmation state is null again.
    This kind of button was the first time introduced by Ralf van den Heuvel in 2008. It was required in for the deletion of a single workshop planning appointment. The workshop planning was a html/javascript application and was asking again to be sure to delete the workshop appointment after clicking once on it.
     In the meantime - when googling for such button behavior - you will find also implementations for jquery/javascript by others.

Here comes the code implementation of the confirmation button in BBJ:
