Trying To Run Some JS Code Once User Closes Window / Tab
Apr 9, 2010
I 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 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 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?

I 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.

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]...

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.

I have a popup window which has the search form in. What I want to do is for the popup window to close once the form is submitted, and to post the form data to a page on the main window.
Is anyone able to advise. As the main page is dynamic, it is not possible to give the page a name.

Put a link on my page that will open an external site (over which I have no control) in a pop-up window. When the user closes the pop-up, I want my original page to redirect to another page. The difficulty I'm having is that I can't add any code to the page in the pop-up as it's not my site.

I'm trying to create code to close the child window I'm creating if the parent window is closed. Here's my code so far:
function openWindow() {
var newWin = window.open(); // open the new window
newWin.document.write('<h1>Child Window</h1>
[Code]...
The above openWindow function is used in this event: <input type="button" name="btn" onclick="openWindow()"value="Open a new window" />
I can generate the new window fine. I just can't close it if the parent window is closed.

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.

I have a closed box system which opens an html page. The page closes by the
system. I have access to the html page. I added code to open a child window
from this page. However when the parent window closes, the child closes
too. Is there a way to keep the child window open? Yes keep it orphaned.

I have a simple page on my freebie account site that opens a popup
window running index.asp on another site of mine. The code on the
freebie hosted server is below. What I'd like to do is have the
freebie hosted page shut down once it's opened up the child window.

I am encountering a problem where I have a window and there are three
frames, one in the left, right and in the bottom. The bottom most frame has
common submit buttons. There are several tabs in left frame. Each one loads
a different form on the right frame. After fetching the contents of the form
from user, I am validating the text fields in the form using onChange() event
handler. After entering the text value in the textbox, if I press Submit
directly, the "Submit" as well as the validation routine happens concurrently.
Only at the end of validation, the field is marked as dirty. Now, if field is not
marked dirty, the Submit function will close the window without actually
submitting as nothing was changed. So when an invalid value is entered and
the Submit is pressed directly, an alert pops up temporarily but the close()
call from the parent frame immediately closes the alert window before user
can respond. This problem does not occur in IE as in IE, unless the alert
window is responded, the close() call cannot close the alert window. Code:

i have som trouble creating a login form which should only display on click.I have an image button with an a href and according class "setvisible" to make a div called "login_box" visible on click.The following should be possible:
-> Click on "Login"
-> Form opens
-> Click on "Login" again should close the form
-> Click outsithe the "login_box" div should close the form also
I've managed to get it working so far but my problem is that everytime you click in a field inside the login_box div the div closes.. I know thats because of the ('document').mouseup function but i don't know how to do it the right way.I know i could do this with "toggle" but i'd like to have fadeIn / fadeOut effect instead of just"show" and "hide"..here you can see a live working sample (click the blue login button):[url].....

I am trying to make a gui for clients to edit a php page that displays html and javascript.
I want the user to be able to move html elements around and even edit it like add effects like fade in and out etc.
Then after all the changes I want to overwrite the existing php file that does this for that user. how can you make such changes and then save it to a file?
It's an html / javascript editor but using a gui instead of allowing them to directly touch the code. It would be a security risk if I allow such a thing. So I need to program a interface that would make such changes and save them to file.
Like how can you delete and add new javascript code to the file?

I want to use php to determine if user is logged in and then run js to change the div's display to none based on login status, something like:
if ($loggined) {
document.getElementById.('header').style.display = 'none';
}
js is so much more difficult than php!

I guess this case applies to both popup windows opened by window.open() and by showModalWindow().
I have two buttons in popup window, "Cancel" and "Save". If the user clicks either button, there is a "process" at parent window before close() at popup being called. The problem now is, if the user click the "X" sign at top right corner of that popup window, how to trigger the "process"?
I think I can do nothing in popup window since the closure is unexpected programmatically. Can I put some kind of listener in parent window to detect if popup is closed?

I need to make sure the zip code the user enters matches up with 1 of 50 acceptable zip codes - so if they enter nothing at all or enter a zip code that does not match up with one of the 50 acceptable zip codes they get an error. I know I need some kind of conditional statement like:
if (#zipcode != "12345 || 23456 || 45678 || 12365") .. do something...

What I want is a piece of code that reads a table and inserts new entries into a listbox on the user side. I dont want to have to "refresh" the page to get new entries into the listbox.Essentially, the table will get updated by an app on one side and I want users to be able to view the updates as they occur.

Can 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).
