Confirmation once a user has submitted a list form

Question

We have quite a few lists on our sites where users fill out forms to add items to a list. One thing that has always bugged me (and my users) is once they fill out the form the dialog just goes away.

No thank you, No your form was submitted successfully, no confirmation.

How can I get a confirmation message to my users once they have submitted the form. Or even redirect them to another page?

Thanks

You can utilize thePresaveAction function. This will let you run code just before saving a list item. See: http://www.ilikesharepoint.de/2014/06/sharepoint-presaveaction-helps-for-actions-before-saving-an-item.
