Proccess OAuth 2 on the web

I have an application integrated with the Drobpox API  and I'm using the OAuth 2 flow on the web however when I try to connect it and I'm logged for that browser, I can't see the windows for the confirmation that appear in the step /oauth2/authorize?response_type.... and I access directly. The problem is when I want to connect my application with a different account that I'm logged, I can't do it because I access directly.
What can I do? For localhost always ask this confirmation.

    I'm not 100% sure I understand your question, but does the force_reapprove parameter do what you want? (Try adding &force_reapprove=true to the /authorize URL.) See https://www.dropbox.com/developers/documentation/http/documentation#oauth2-authorize for details.
