This example calls `$msgbox` method directly using the `showCancelButton` attribute, which is used to indicate if a cancel button is displayed. Besides we can use `cancelButtonClass` to add a custom style and `cancelButtonText` to customize the button text. The confirm button also has these fields.

This example also uses the `beforeClose` attribute. It is a method and will be triggered when the MessageBox instance will be closed, and its execution will stop the instance from closing. It has two parameters: `action` and `instance`. Using it enables you to manipulate the instance before it closes, e.g. activating `loading` for confirm button; you can invoke the `close` method registered on the instance to close the MessageBox instance.
