I need to call a javascript function when the user closes the browser window. I have tried onunload but that runs when the user clicks a new link as well. I need something that only runs when the browser window is closed.
View 1 RepliesI need to create an application that will open a popup when the user closes a window. I can do that easily via onUnload event of javascript but the catch is that the popup must open only when we close the window and not when we submit a form or click a link on the page.Actually it is a survey which opens only when one closes the window.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI 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 was at cracked when I saw this (take a look at the bottom):[URL]... You'll see that there is div tag fixed to the bottom of the screen (when you scroll, it's still there). The only way to remove it is by pressing X. Now I presume this button will always show for as long as the user is on the site, until he presses the x. After that, he'll never see the div again. Am I right in this assumption?
Whether yes or no, I'm still curious as to how cracked accomplished making that. Can somebody provide an extensive answer as to how I can do what cracked did?[URL]...
How do i detect when a user closes my window?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am looking to write some code that, once the window is closed, it runs some extra JS which loads a *.php file through an AJAX call. In theory to me it sounds simple but for some reason I cannot get it working. I tried the "onload" attribute but then found that triggers with refresh and links (not good). I simply need the JS code to start running some other JS when the window closes.
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
function doUnload() {
$.post("");
}
</script>
I need to remember the time when user closes the window and later when he/she comes back, site will highlight latest news that happened when user was offline. So far the best solution I have found is jquery.unload (since I use jquery): it sends some data to php script (which remembers the time) via ajax when unload event triggers, so is it the best way to solve this problem?
View 1 Replies View Relatedis there any way, using javascript, to call a function when someone presses back or forward in their browser? I'm using AJAX and have a partial solution. It works but would be more efficient if this is possible.
View 10 Replies View RelatedI am having a problem of calling the user defined JS function after I make the AJAX call. Basically, I created couple radio buttons on the main html page. When the user clicks on one of the radio button, it will trigger the AJAX call and return another html file in the "div" content that I set in the main html page. The other html file contains a user defined JS function (e.g. "updateContent()") which use the onclick event handler to call the function. When I'm running the app, and click on the button. I had seen the firebug was complaining the "updateContent() is not defined" error. The function itself works fine and must be defined properly.

I'm developing a chat module for our cms. Its working mostly, but I need to make it so that in some situations when someone closes a window that it does a xmlhttprequest to mark the session as closed.Some lite reading seems tell me there is no onclose event, but there is an unload event. Further reading leads me to believe that the unload event may not work when a window is closed.

View 4 Replies View Related<button onClick="return popup('<span onClick='selectShape(1, 1, 1)'>test<span>');" tabindex=Ɖ' onFocus="setFocusColor(0,3)">....</button>
This will work perfectly, but as soon as I need to pass Strings inside the selectShape function, I get stuck.
So the question is, how can I create the following and have it working
......selectShape(2, 'Tricky', ཤx5°').....

I own a game site and some users cheat by changing the browser URL. For example :
The URL for starting a game mission is this : ww.somesite.com/somethingaspx?htxm=18
And if they change the number to 87 they go to the end of he mission WITHOUT actually completing it.
They ONLY way to deal with this is by preventing users from changing the URL manually. Is there a way to do it? Like, if someone tries to change that number in the URL he gets a message and browser window closed(or something that will prevent him from going to that page)
Of course, the solution must not conflict with the normal navigation(which is the actual mission) which means the user should be able to navigate to different pages but NOT change the URL manually.
Is there any way that an Apache server can recognise that a users browser has changed from your web site to another site. ie. is there a way of executing a CGI based on when the address bar no longer has your FDQN.
Would this be via Javascript [if possible?] or ???
Does anyone know how to make it prompt the user if they try to close the browser window? Basically if someone goes to file->exit, or tries to navigate to another site, I want a confirmation box to pop up and say are you sure?
Please note I am not using this to annoy regular visitors - this is only going to be a part of my admin panel where I frequently forget to complete the last step, I just want to add a friendly reminder for myself.
I am having troubles with a script that returns the user's browser version... it keeps showing as IE 7 yet I have IE 8. If I duplicate the files and run it from a different folder, the code works correctly. If you can point me in the direction of where to look and what to look for

I have seen this employed somewhere else, but for the life of me cannot remember how it was done. I need to write a javascript that will call a desired CSS file based on the user's browser.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI want to display three sets of images on a Web page, and I want to use only one jcarousel to do it. I want to change the list of images based on the user clicking on one of three links, each representing a set of images. How do I do this? I know I can edit the DOM to modify the list of items, but how do I call jcarousel's reload() function? I thought of using three instances of jcarousel, but that takes up too much screen space and requires the user to scroll too much.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to get a way by which I'll know exactly when user goes out
of my site by clicking on close button in browser, So that w/e user
click close button in browser, I can send a signal to server.
This seems to be achievable with body unload events, but it is little
too much, as even if user navigate within my site, this event will be
generated, this can be avoided by handling onclick of each link, so
that I'll know exactly which link is clicked, but honestly this looks
over doing to me, any other smart short cut for finding out when user
click on X in browser?
I'm using a little javascript to help my site's design to fit the visitor's entire browser window.
Everything works great apart from one problem. If a visitor first loads the page and the browser isn't maximised, the page loads correctly BUT if the visitor then proceeds to maximize the browser, the page is still set for the minimised browser. This condition stays until the visitor goes to another section of the site or refreshes the page. When this happens, the page again loads correctly.
I would like to force a page reload whenever the browser is minimizedmaximized or is in any other way changed size. How can I do this?
