How to set up a warning message when visiting an external link?

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I have a site on Squrespace. I have added an extenal link as a menu item. So, if anybody click on that menu item, he will visit to the external link. But I want that, if anybody click on that link, first he will get a warning message like "Leaving the current site" and then if he clicks on okay the will visit the linked external site. Is it possible that I can do in the website?

Thank You
