View 4 RepliesI want to capture the event when a browser is closing, to give to the user
the posibility of close or no this browser. When the browser is closing,
this show a confirm window with two buttons: Accept and Cancel.
When press the Accept button, the browser is closing, and when press the
Cancel button, the browser isnīt closing.
I have tried with the event onunload, but this closes first the browser, and
then shows the confirm window.
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 want to execute some java script code when I close the browser.In firefox clientX and clientY are getting as "undefined"..
View 9 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've got an internet site and 2 domain adress.
The first adress go on my Home page and I would like the second one to go to
a specific page of my site.
I want to know how to capture the URL which has been tape by the user to
reorient the user to the good page.
Is it possible to capture the control.event or element.event that was fired to invoke the onbeforeunload event.
For example, if a button is clicked and it causes the onbeforeunload event to fire can i determine which button was clicked.
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 ?

View 1 Replies View RelatedCan anybody let me know how to detect when my user clicks the X button
on the window. I used unload event it did not work(on IE). My web page
is a .asp page which reloads itself when navigating on the site. Now
whenever the user clicks any links on the page the unload event is
triggered which is not what I want. I only want to detect when user
clicks the X button and not when the URL changes.
code i used:
<body onunload="alert('leaving window');">
Basically this alert window is triggered everytime the URL changes and
not just when the window closes(which is what i want).
Is there a way to tell when the user closes the browser that doesn't
also happen when a page is merely being refreshed?
I'm trying to get my form to save a user's data via cookies. I found a script at [URL], and it only seems to work if you refresh the page, but not if you close out the browser and restart.
<form action="process-contact.php" id="contact" method="post">
Name: <input type="text" name="name"/>
<br />Email: <input type="text" name="email"/>
<br />Message: <textarea name="message">
anyone know any java script will display message box when browser closing?

bestScore = parseInt(document.cookie);
document.cookie = bestScore.toString();
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 to know whether we can track the direct browser closing event by Javascript.I have tried with window.unload & window . onbeforeunload, but I was not get full satisfaction with those ones.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI work for an association and we do many conference events. Our web provider has been developing an online registration module for their CMS to make things easier for us. One problem that we have had in the past is that people leave the registration page before completing the registration i.e. select payment method and click 'next button'. I suggested to use Javascript so that when people try to leave the page/close browser before submitting the form, that they get a message saying that their registration is not yet complete and that they will be invoived for the fee unless they cancel. I have been told that this is not possible to do.

[Code]...
however, no good either way ... though I see nearly identical examples all over the web.
I have an application that is using Classic ASP, SQL server and cookies. But unless the user goes all the way through the application and the details are removed, they stay in the database.
How can I detect when they close the browser or move away to another web url. I have several pages in my app, so I dont want any unload event firing when I change pages.
Only when I move to another website completely or close the browser.
All the code I've seen on the net so far will fire if i change url's. Oh and I need to be able to access the Session's data in order to remove it from the database.
How can I capture the event when I click with the cursor anywhere in the
page (that is, on a component or elsewhere). This event would occure in
an I.E 5.5 or later browser.
I know this question has been asked a million times but I still can't
get an event from an embedded ActiveX Exe to be caught in javascript.
I am able to access all the properties and methods of the ActiveX Exe,
I just can't seem to catch the event.
I've declared my object as follows:
<OBJECT
ID = "Test3"
CODEBASE = "http://www.amys-attic.com/Test3.exe"
CLASSID = "CLSID:2ACAEF35-445C-4717-8ACB-A3423E8D64EB"
style="display:none;">
</OBJECT>
My javascript event handler is as follows:
<script language="javascript" for="Test3"
event="PipeEvent(bIsPresent)">
alert("Pipe Detect");
</script>
The event handler never fires. I debugged the ActiveX Exe and verified
that the event is indeed being raised. I am able to catch the event in a VB6 test container project as well. Any ideas?
I want to capture the event when the <ctrl> key is pressed.

I've never come across trying to capture autocompletes before (in fact, ideally i'm trying to ignore keypresses on the autocomplete and only capture those for the underlying input).
i am trying to load/embed pdf inside a html object tag. since loadng of pdf content takes time, I want to capture onload complete event of object tag and take some action/msg to show usr that loading is complete. but i am not able to capture onload event of object tag. i get pdf content from an aspx page in bytestream and set it as data in object tag:
JS:
function loadObjectsuccess() {
alert('pdf has loaded now');
[code]....
is it possible to track whether user is typing in the browser's address bar or aside google search box ( which appears in most of the browsers besides address bar)? if yes, I would like to know HOW? references are welcome.
