Warn The User Before Window Close
Aug 14, 2010
I have a php application that launches a window that is used for a database import/update (which is closed automatically when the import/update is complete). The thing is that the user could close this window and i want to pop up a warning message (but only if the user closes it) that the user can cancel (stop the closing of the window) or select OK to close the window.
I have been looking for a javascript script that accomplishes this but without luck. Does anyone know how to do this or if it's possible? (i only know a little javascript)

Ive looked and looked and can't find a solution to this problem... I want to have it so that when the users closes the window (by clicking the little [x] box at the top right hand corner), it prompts them asking if they really want to close the window. If they choose Yes then it does, if No, takes them back to where they just were. I know that this is possible with javascript, but is it possible to maybe coincide php w/ java in order to achieve this effect? If anyone can figure out a solution (possibly w/ code), ill be grateful..
secondly, is it possible to do the same w/ the user pressing the refresh button? By this i mean, if a user chooses to click the Refresh button in the toolbar of the browser, it alerts them saying somehting.
*The reason i don't ask this in the Javascript forum is because i need to work w/ php in order to do this.

- I have a button on my Flash site that opens an HTML page in a popup window. In Flash, I open the new window using Actiosnscript 2.0:
- Within the popup window are links to other HTML pages. They all open in the same window. I've been using the following to create the links in Dreamweaver:
- On each page, I have a "Return to Main Menu" button that should close the popup window. To do this, I have been using:
- The problem is that it works differently in each browser, and I can't even get it to consistently close the window in most browsers:
Internet Explorer = popup message appears, asking "Are you sure you want to close this window?" or something similar; window closes after clicking "Yes."
Safari = Only closes if I'm on the original HTML page. If I click on any of the other links (note that these all open in the same window), those pages' "Return to Main Menu" buttons cease to work. However, if I keep clicking "Back" until I get to the original page, it closes.
Opera = Button actually works for each page.
Firefox & Chrome = Does not close the window at all.
I looked into it and saw that others have used a window.opener to solve similar issues. But, since my popup window is opened using Flash/AS2, I need to find a way around it.
I've tried preceding "window.close()" with "window.opener=null" (i.e. -onClick="window.opener=null; window.close()"), but I don't think I'm doing it right because it still doesn't work.
I've also seen others use codes that involve functions and variables, but it is beyond my current coding knowledge to implement this. Like I said, I'm sort of new at this.

I want to log out the user when close the browser, so i need to call the java script function when close the window. I used the onunload and onbeforeunload event but it should call on each page navigation and page refreshing. My necessity is, The function should call only at the time of browser closed..that should be mainly supported in all browsers...

I need a script that will open a new window (popup / new link) in a specific size, but will also close the old window (where the popup came from). I know the popup window is easy but finding a work-able close window script as the new window is opened is impossible!!

I'm trying to create code to close the child window I'm creating if the parent window is closed. Here's my code so far:
function openWindow() {
var newWin = window.open(); // open the new window
newWin.document.write('<h1>Child Window</h1>
[Code]...
The above openWindow function is used in this event: <input type="button" name="btn" onclick="openWindow()"value="Open a new window" />
I can generate the new window fine. I just can't close it if the parent window is closed.

I'm trying to display an alert message (a div with text) that fades in, and after 6 seconds fades out automatically. That's easy, but I also want to allow the user to close the div by clicking on it if they so desire. The problem is, the delay() function overrides the click, or so it seems -- clicking does nothing unless I remove the delay().
Here's the code I'm using:
I've tried reordering and combining these into a single statement but it yields the same result.

I made a drop-down list that is opened when a user clicks on a button. If the user selects an item, the drop-down is rebuilt so the list is closed. If the user clicks on the button again, the drop-down closes using .toggle() on the button click event, and these two scenarios work great.However, I also need the drop-down to close when the user clicks anywhere outside of the drop-down. This seems simple, but I've been having a really difficult time figuring this out. I tried .focusout(), but this makes the events I have tied to selecting an item not fire at all. I also found this little bit of code from a drop-down plugin that should work perfectly, but it fires when the user clicks on the button, so the drop-down never opens:

Imagine a wife has signed on to a web site in a browser tab. She does not sign off and walks away to do something else. Her husband sits at the computer and seeing her signed on, opens a new tab and tries to sign on to the same site.
I am trying to write a script that will close other tabs/windows when the husband goes to the same site to sign on.
So, on the sign on page (or even better, the sign off page), when the sign on button is clicked, a piece of Javascript code is run first. The javascript simply goes through all tabs on the browser, and checks to see if any such tabs has an HTML document that came from the same domain as the sign on page. If such tabs exist, then before POSTing the user name and password to the server, the Javascript code will close those tabs that contain HTML documents came from the same domain.
So, I understand I need to set the window.name to a specific value. But does anyone know what the code on the sign on/sign off page to close the other tabs/windows would look like?

I have read all posts about how to detect that url have changed to new
page and trigger the event handler then eg.
function aidLogout(evt) {
if(evt) {
/* maybe via analyse of evt object i can detect the close of the
browser window */
}
if(window.event) {
/* maybe via analyse of window.event object i can detect the close of
the browser window */
}
var i = new Image();
i.src = "aidlogout.asp?uid=1562&SessionID=ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP"
} /* assuming that aidlogout.asp will return nothing or empty image */
window.unload = aidLogout;
/* or via
if(window.addEventListener) {
window.addEventListener("unload", aidLogout, false);
} else
if(window.attachEvent) {
window.attachEvent("unload", aidLogout);
}
PS i know about super Gecko onclose event which fires when browser
window is closed, but i could not find such method in IE.

I have a product that has many features. Clicking on a feature opens a popup window with explanation. There is a js Close Window link in each. All is fine so far.
Now in one popup window there is a reference to a different page of the main website. Is it possible to have a single text link both CLOSE the popup AND go to a new page in the parent window?

I've got a form that's nested in a larger application. I need to
program it so that the user is warned to save upon clicking on any
exit point in the application.
So, if they click on any of the nav buttons in the header/nav bar,
they need to get an alert:
"Would you like to continue without saving your changes?"
_Yes_ _No_
It would be a big pain to retrofit the application's nav
buttons/framework for just these forms, so I'm looking for a solution
that doesn't require editing the source code of the application's
existing navigation.
What are my options?

I urgently need a piece of JS that will close the window when a user clicks a button.
Using window.close works but it gives an alert box to ask the user if they want to close the window. Is there a way around this?

I have to add some technique which will solve the following problem. A form is presented to the user in our web application. Say it has
4 text fields,
2 radio buttons (Yes / No)
1 checkbox
1 select list.
Now 2 textfields are pre-populated, one radio button (Yes) is pre-selected, checkbox is not checked, one option from select list is preselected.
Problem:
In 90% of the cases, all that the user needs to do is enter values in the 2 empty textfields and click Submit.
However, the user might change the values in the preselected controls, like check the checkbox, change radio selection from Yes to No, select a different option from the select list, change the default values from the prepopulated text fields.
Now in such a case where 'default' values are changed, I need to show a alert or a popup layer to the user when the submit button is clicked.
Showing a popup layer or an alert:
The popup layer/alert will be a confirmation popup which will say something like -
"You have changed the default values for:[all the fields which were changed by user]. This requires you to do [some task] once you submit the form.
If you do not wish to change these defaults, click Cancel.
To proceed with the changes, click OK and then Submit."
Clicking OK:
If user clicks OK, then all is well. User will click Submit to submit the form and do some task which is required when defaults are changed.
Clicking Cancel:
If user clicks Cancel then the defaults should be restored. User is now free to click Submit. Code:

I'm struggling to get what I want to work..I have two textfields (using jquery to ensure digits only, limit 3) one is total_available one is currently_available
obviously you cannot have more things available than you have in total, so i need to compare them, and warn when the second one is larger than the first. I tried to modify the jquery validation equalTo with no luck.
i actualy dont care it its not, if i can get the values from the fields, convert them to INT, then compare, and change the innerHTML of a warning DIV that is next to the fields to say "check again" then it will be sorted.
