you want unbeforeunload(). you will have to put in code that checks that a
submit was done.
<body onbeforeunload="return doUnload()">
<form ....
....
</form>
<script>
var unloadOk = false;
function doUnload() {
if (!unload) return "Lose data changes?";
return;
}
window.__doPostBack = function (eventTarget, eventArgument) {
var theform = document.forms[0];
theform.__EVENTTARGET.value = eventTarget.split("$").join(":");
theform.__EVENTARGUMENT.value = eventArgument;
unloadOk = true;
theform.submit();
}
var oldOnSubmit = document.forms[0].onsubmit;
window.onsubmit = function()
{
unloadOk = true;
if (oldOnSubmit) oldOnSubmit();
}
</script>

| Ok,
|
| what I am attempting to do is take a web form and attach a
| confirm to leave page. I can get the event to fire (though
| it doestn actually prevent navigating away from the site)
|
| My problem is that every time I initiate a postback, the
| event is also fired. I dont want people to see "Are you
| sure you wish to discard any changes?" if they hit refresh
| or postback etc.
|
| ANyway I can get around this?
