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 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.
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...
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 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 want to use jquery to detect what type of browser you are using and display a link to a .wmv file if you are on IE or display a link to a .mp4 file if you are any other type of browser.I have this script declaration in my <head> section.
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.
$.browser is being deprecated however I still need to know what browser is hitting the page. In some cases I need to modify a layout or position an element by some pixels. The number of pixels is different for different browsers.How can I detect the browser using jQuery without using $.browser?
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;
On the cart payment page of my system, when a user proceed to pay his cart/order using online payment, the page takes time to process the payment. I made a pop-up for it to show that it is processing saying that "Do not refresh, your payment may take upto 2 minutes to process." But I am thinking for this solution of disabling the refresh... Or this alternate way: detecting the refresh committed by the user on my back end... If I detected it, Ill just make a function that will terminate the process and will inform the user for unsuccessful payment
I've got a situation where I'm updating a MySQL DB with PHP but because of how the language works I need to do the following.
The "main page" will open a remote page where the user will add/edit/modify data then on the confirmation page, there needs to be a close button. However, before the window is closed, I want it to reload the "main window" so that they can see the changes they made. I've been digging through the google groups and JS sources on the net but I'm just not finding answers for a JS newb like myself.....
I'm not sure if this question should go to the "JavaScript" section; but I'm open to non-JavaScript (like VBScript) options too. So, I'm posting this here.
I have the following problem:
For my application, I need to ask a confirmation when the user closes the browser-window. If the answer is positive, I would like to log-off the session and close the window. If the answer is negative, I would like to stay back (no logging-off, no closing the window).
I can't do this in the window.unload event because the window is already closed when the unload event is fired. I tried doing this in the beforeUnload event. But the beforeUnload event gets called even when I refresh the page and in that case, I don't want to ask this question or logoff.
I am a visual designer that can usually install pre written code without to much difficulty. And, indeed I have installed FancyBox
I am working with a dynamically generated page written in ColdFusion. Three divs on the page contain FancyBox links that open editing screens. Once editing is complete and the user closes the FancyBox modal the changes need to be reflected on the parent page.
Right, so I was able to find a solution that refreshes the entire page
to refresh the entire parent page. But, that causes a browser prompt that is confusing to users and a bit of over kill as I really only need the information edited to refresh.
How, oh how can I get just a single div to refresh "onClosed" as apposed to the entire page?
I have a parent page that when load populate a div area from database.
I want when I click and open a child page, do some selections(for example check some checkboxes) and press submit, the child will close and the div area in parent will refresh .
I've seen plenty of browser detection scripts but they all seem to be slightly different and don't really fit my needs. I have various places where if the browser is IE I'd like to display [this html code] else [display this]. For example, if a browser is IE I want to use this CSS file otherwise use a different one and if it's IE make this cell x pixels high else make it y pixels high. I'm sure this is easy ....
In a nutshell I need to know when the user opened a new tab. I lookedaroundand I can't find an answer to it. Most of the browsers keep the same session id for the new tab, which in turn makes my application not happy.
Does anyone know a small, but reliable browser detection script and how to set it up to call a different style sheet for each browser and notify the user if their browser is out of date?
Is there a way to detect with javascript the scrolling bar with of the browser?
My problem is that the the following script assing to the pos variable the browser window size but only internet explorer substracts the scrolling bar with from the result.
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/JavaScript"> <!-- var pos; if (window.innerWidth) { pos =window.innerWidth; } else if (document.documentElement && document.documentElement.clientWidth) { pos= document.documentElement.clientWidth; } else if (document.body) { pos= document.body.clientWidth; } //--> </script>
At least i want to ask if there is a script that return exactly the width of the browser's window that i have to output any text or graphic?
