Body Onunload Event - Initiate Fancybox Popup On Page Unload
Feb 17, 2011
I am trying to initiate fancybox popup on page unload (i.e. when the user closes the browser window). I managed to find the following script which does the opposite (launches when the page loads). How can I reverse this code so that it executes on body unload?
I want to know that how can we fire unload event of body tag using javascript and I want to it for safari browser.I goole this many times but I am not getting the right.I know this is a very simple question for many users but I am a begginer of javascript.
To make my system's admin page safer maybe I should apply <body onunload=""> somehow so that admin session would be reseted immediately after user closes the window?
But how to check easily that unloading refers only to windowclosing, not to following links to other admin subpages?
I have a query related to the life cycle of the java web page. When does the javascript page unload event gets invoked exactly?
Say suppose I am on page 1 and submit the page 1 or click on some link to view the page 2. The dollowing sequence of events will happen:
1. The user (on page 1) clicks on some link (pointing to page 2) on page 1 OR submits the page
2. The browser would send the request to the app server for page 2
3. The app server processes the request
4. The app server sends the resposne to the browser
5. The browser loads/displays the page 2
6. Invokes JS page load event on the browser
Now the question is - when does the JS unload event get invoked? As per my it is after Step 4 & Step 6. Is it always fired in this sequence OR is there any possibility that page unload event would be triggered before Step 4?
I have a page that loads a fancybox popup and it works perfectly with the cookie for setting ho many days to show. the problem i have is that i need it to show 1 every 24 hours over a 3 day period. once the 3rd day is over and the user sees the window for the 3rd day i need a cookie set to never show the window again. here is my code as it sits now. I have worked with this for a couple of days on and off and it is above my head for sure.
I'm working on an asp.net site and am trying to implement a popup help window. I want the window to close when the user advances to the next page in our application. The thing is, I'm doing this on a component basis and I don't have access to the body tag from within my help component, so I can't add the onunload tag. Is there some other way of achieving what I want? Can I add an eventhandler to the body tag through javascript?
does anyone have sample code to display a pop up when a user leaves the site? I really don't want to use this technique, but the clients demand it.
I'm thinking something like un body onunload, catch the URL they're linking to and parse it for our own site's url and only display the pop up if they're different.
I have a ajax function implementation: when the user is on one site, the ajax call keeps checking the server every 5 seconds if there is a server url change. If there is, there will be a message displayed to direct the user to go to another site.
when the user go to another site, the ajax keeps checking every 10 seconds, if there is condition met, the message will be displayed to direct user to go back to the previous site. Also, after the message is displayed, ajax call keeps checking if there is another condition met, if there is, the message will automatically disappear.
The use case is: when one server is down, the message will direct the user to another site. On another site, when the previous server is up, the user could be redirected to the previous site. there is also scenario that when the message is displayed (when server is down), the user may not follow the link to do anything. he/she may simply leave the message on and go to lunch or something, when he/she comes back, the server may be already up and the message should be disappeared instead of keeping showing the message. Therefore, the message should be displayed or disappeared automatically based on the ajax call condition.
I implemented the ajax function and it did check and displayed message. However, it wont' display the message only until the user login or the user does a "refresh" to the page. After the message is displayed, when another condition met, the message won't disappear until the page is refreshed. Then the ajax calls keep doing fine every 10 seconds. The ajax call seems fine since when I set a alert, I did see the popup message show up every 10 seconds (but only after I refreshed the page.)
Now the problem is: the message can't be automatically displayed or disappeared. It can only happen when there is new page load (refresh). How can I solve this problem. I'm thinking of putting "windows.location.reload;" to load the page right after the condition met. But kind of feel I don't need to do this.
I have aded window unload event handler to my code. my page calls some function that takes few secs and page then loads in 5-6 secs. while ths page is loading, if user clicks 'x' on browser window, then code inside unload event handler doesnt get executed. if user waits for page to be loaded fully and hten clicks 'x', then unload event handler gets executed. but i want if during loading user decides to click 'x' button, then also unload handler shold get exucted.
I am pasting a sample code that simulates my situation:
How do I pass incremented variables from the parent to the child if I use onUnload="window.open()" ? I tried window.opener.document.getElementById('targetname') but it doesn't work because the parent is already closed when the child tries to get the information.
What code can I put in the 'onbeforeunload' event to cancel the 'unload' action (when user closes browser) and then present the user with an alert saying that he/she must use the logout button.
I am using window.unload for some use case in my code. But windows.unload fires on every event. I know to controller it on event like button click or link, but how do I prevent Unload event to fire on refresh or back button event?
Do I have a way (when I get the unload) to distinguish between X button and another cases(for example when moving writing another URL address)? I want to decide what message to display to the user when I get to the unload event, if this possible to do?
In windows7 RTM IE8 facing problem in onunload event. In onunload event I am trying to reset the cookies,also I am trying to end the session at the server side.For this I am submitting a form on onunload.Its working in all the other browsers. But in windows7 RTM IE8 I am getting ACCESS DENIED java script error.Someone have encountered the same problem
I have a drop down box. onChange of that drop down box the option selected is $_POSTed to a php page where I'm grabbing that name and using it in a form on the new page.
Instead of it opening a new window for the php page, I'd love to make it more aesthetically pleasing and use Fancy Box and jQuery to open a popup window over the page that has an iframe of the php in it.
My issue: I can't figure out how to have the modal popup open when the dropdown is selected. I don't want to have to use a button to trigger it. Any way to trigger the popup AND also POST to the php page onChange of the selection box?
I have some problem with onunload where I want slideUp my menu when I go out form site. I have the slideDown function fire at body onload and this function work properly. but the slideUp() at onunload not.
My code: $(window).unload(function() { $('#menuContent1').slideUp(); alert('Handler for .unload() called.'); });
and even the alert work. Only the jQuery slideUp not working.
I've been working on a freelance design site, and I have been using jshowoff and fancybox on my portfolio page. The portfolio has multiple sections that are set to be scrolled through using jshowoff by using the slide links. This use of jshowoff is working perfectly fine, but fancybox isn't. fancybox is supposed to be set to launch a modal when any of the portfolio thumbnail images are clicked. As it is right now, fancybox links will not work within the jshowoff slide div, but they do work outside of the jshowoff slide div.
I have done about 5 hours of searching online for possible fixed to my issue, and I haven't found anything. I am attempting to fix the conflict the between jshowoff and fancybox. I am very new to using jQuery plugins, so hopefully, you can all bear with me.If anyone may know how I can fix my fancybox links, so that fancybox will work within my jshowoff slide, I'd greatly appreciate it. I have provided the html below:

I have the following problem: In wordpress I wanted to popup the login-page (wp-login.php) and i used the fancybox to generate an iframe. after clicking the "login" button i want that the fancybox is closing (thats not the problem) and i want to reload the whole page so that it recognizes that i'm logged in.
Now that is the problem .. I cant reload the index page when clicking the login button, because (i think so) the login document is in a iframe and is not able to reload the whole screen). I don't know the "reload" command, too, maybe load("index.php"); ? :D
I'm using Gravity forms for a fancybox popup here- hit the 'JOIN' button and you'll see the popup. What I need to do is close the popup when the submit button is hit and then redirect the parent page to a specific url. I cannot wrap the submit button itself in a link because I'm using Gravity Forms. Is there another way to do this?
I have a form which open in a jQuery Fancybox Window. The fancybox window opens automatically when the page loads. When it loads, I would like it to set focus on the username field in the form in the Fancybox window. I have found that this must be done when fancybox is envoked, thus I have tried the below code which does not work :
I've been reading about jquery and ajax and I'm not exactly 100% sure as to how to implement it. Essentially I have the following: A textbox A select box Another select box
As the user fills data in the textbox and then clicks off I want the javascript to fire, submit the value in the textbox to a url (I can handle the backend side of it all fine) which will then send new data to the select boxes. Similarly for the second select box when a user clicks off (After selecting) I need the jquery to fire again. I've seen this code and think I get how to write it in, but I'm not sure how to do the (When user clicks off bit of it). $.get('ajax/test.html', function(data) { $('.result').html(data); alert('Load was performed.'); });
I'm having some trouble with the "onBlur" event in the BODY tag. Ideally, what I want to happen is that when someone leaves window A, window A executes a command. I had put
<body onBlur="savePage();">
I have a couple of problems. On IE 6 (win2000), whenever I put the cursor focus on a textfield within window A, the "savePage" function is invoked. And on Mozilla Filefox 0.9.1, the event never launches even when I leave the window.
Does anyone know how I can solve these respective problems?
