I have googled for my issue in this group. This question was asked
many times and many solution was given. But I want clear cut solution
for the issue.
The issue is:
I tried to capture the browse close event by using
Body onunload=fn1() statement and it is working fine.
I have one Parent and child window.
My req is to close the child window when I click -X- buton in IE. It
is also working fine. (I wrote condition in Unload event of the parent
page).
But when the page is postback (when I click one button) the unload
event fires and it closes my child window automatically. But I want my
child window should not close this situation.
I want to trap the window.close() event when the user clicks on the close button of the browser using javascript. Can anyone shed light on this problem ?
I have to open a new window when user closes the browser window. But the problem is that on browser close unload event calls and the same event is called with we refresh the page. So it is opening the popup window on both window close and window refresh.
I'm having troubles trying to detect the browser close event. (in FF or IE) To do this I'm using these events: "unload" and "beforeunload", but both are more or less the same, I mean, when I refresh the page or navigate away thru some link, these events catch the same action, but I just need to catch the browser close event, no the page refresh, no the click thru, just the browser close...
function doUnload() { if (window.event.clientX < 0 && window.event.clientY < 0) { alert("Window is closing..."); } }
I get window.event undefined by using var evt =window.event? event : e I get e undefined var evt =window.event? event : e if (evt.clientX < 0 && evt.clientY < 0){ alert(evt.clientX +"Window is closing..."); }
Suppose,closing the browser through Browser Close Button(Top Right Corner cross(x) button), i have to execute some ASP script , for that, in body onUnLoad Event calling a fucntion called CloseWin(e,frm), it is working in Internet Explorer successfully , But in FireFox not working. how to solve this problem. or any other way to get the co-ordinates of browser close button( code for both IE and Firefox).
code follows
function CloseWin(e,frm) { //frm required for my program var bButtonClicked = false;
I have an iframe that includes a button: <input type="button" value="close this window" onclick="window.close();" >
I would like to detect the iframe close event from the parent window, I was using this code but I did something wrong because the temp function is fired every time the parent page loads:
function temp(){ alert('the iframe was closed'); } function setup(){ var myIFrame = document.getElementById("iframe1"); if (myIFrame.addEventListener) { myIFrame.addEventListener('onclose', temp(), false); }else if (myIFrame.attachEvent) { myIFrame.attachEvent ('onclose',temp); }else{ myIFrame.onclose=temp(); } } window.onload=setup;
currently on our site we have and expanding <div> that responds to both the onmouseover and onmouseout events. It works wonderfully.
The UX people now would like the expanding <div> to open with the onclick event and then as soon as the mouse leaves the expanded div, it would close. I have tried using the onmouseout event in conjunction the onclick event but it does not work (the div persists).
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'm running a bat file that runs a php script, that backs up my db.
Problem is that I'm limited by the functions I can use as I'm on a winXP box and dont want to compromise security.
The function I'm left with means I should run the script from a browser as it echoes out the results. At this point I'm not opening a browser so it is creating a few problems.
To get around this I thought I might be able to use js. But, I've been testing with a script I hacked (and I mean hacked, its probably a mess).
4 problems: 1. its trying to download a file 2. still has a pop-up asking if its ok to close window 3. its not displaying the php file 4. even if I click the 'go back' link it still asks if it should close.
I will enclose the php script I'm running from bat file in the hopes some-one will kindly put it all together for me For testing I've just been running (trying to include, not download, as I'm getting now) a small php script that says 'hello world' Code:
I am writing code in php and wants to delete file when i click on browser close button. How can i fire event on close button of browser and delete specific file.
In my application I want user to take an "Exit Survey"(Independent website) when he is leaving the application. As name explains, It should happen only when user closes current browser tab or browser window.Its possible using JavaScript OnUnload event. But the problem is that this event occurs on
1. close of browser tab 2. close of browser window 3. click of any internal page link(i.e anchors and form buttons)
I've got a chat program which relies on a column in a MySQL database to see if he/she has logged out or not. But if you close the browser window, the computer still thinks you're online. I wrote this in the JavaScript section cos I think it would definitely need Javascript.
Even I am trying the browser close event for cross browser and this should trigger only when X button is clicked or page is refreshed. Here's the code pasted above which I am using but it only works in IE. I know the issue is because of window.events and ClientX/ClientY. my code to make it work in all browsers? This is very urgent and have been striving since 3 days...
*Please Note: Current code is working in IE only and to check you have to close the browser window or refresh the page with mouse click

I am working on a chat program. When a user logs in, a value in the database is set to 1 (online), and when he/she logs out it is set to 0 (offline). The problem is, when the user exits the browser, naturally the value is still set to 1.
I was wondering if it is possible using AJAX or otherwise to update the database on the event of browser close? I have tried onbodyunload in the body tags pointing to a file with a JavaScript function containing the PHP code (query to update the field) but cant get it to work.
I want to run a PHP code being the scenes as soon as the user closes the browser using the browser kill button. Is there is a way we can detect the browser close button. One more thing that is - it shudnt be a code that runs on body unload as that code will also run when the use is navigating from one page to another within the same application as well.
Is there a way to delete a server-side file if the browser is closed? I have a pop-up window that allows a user to send an email to someone that will have a file attachment. Currently, the file data is read from a VARBINARY(MAX) column in a database and created/saved in a folder that is created for it (with a unique name for the directory) when the pop-up first loads. When the form is submit, the file is emailed then deleted and the directory for it is removed.
If the user changes his/her mind and closes the pop-up without hitting submit, the file and directory are left. I'd like to be able to delete the file and remove the directory if the pop-up is closed without hitting submit.Can this be done with JavaScript? Or can this only be done with a dynamic server-side scripting language like PHP, ASP, ColdFusion?If only server-side scripting can do this, how can I trigger the script to run when the browser is closed?
When we refresh the page (F5, or icon in browser), it will first trigger ONUNLOAD event and then trigger ONLOAD event. When we close the browser (X on right top icon), it will trigger ONUNLOAD event.
Now when ONUNLOAD event is triggered, there is no way to distinguish between refresh the page or close the browser.
Here's the code fragment. The logic in window_unload() only applies to closing the browser, not refreshing the page.
<BODY ONUNLOAD="window_unload()"> function window_unload() {//logic that only applies to close the browser, not refresh the page. }
I need to display alert when I close the browser window. Now I am using the following code to display the alert. But the alert is getting displayed even I click on any links. But the alert should not displayed when i click the link.
