I want ot capture Blowser Close event.

[navtej]

Hi friends

I have an web application, when a user exit using the [ X ] on the top right of the browser. I want to open a conformation box equring abt the descion of the user.

The main problem is my function is not 100% sure if a user has realy exited , or is doing something else, eg : 'refersh' its the ambugity.

I am lokking for something which is 100% sure .

Currently I am doing with javascript on page un load , the problem is the event is not being caputuerd on the client side on the broser , even though I am able to capute it on unload on the server, the function fires on even page refresh and when when ever a user manualy changes the address in the browser address manualy. Though I have filterd the events fired by input,image and A tags tha app is not 100% perfect.

heres the code

on unload:
onunload=con

Javascript:


var SopingMode_clicked = false; // to be made true if the checking condition is met by the app.

document.onclick = function(e)
{ alert("hi");
var nn6=document.getElementById&&!document.all;
var SopingMode_e = (nn6==true) ? e.target : event.srcElement;
alert(SopingMode_e.tagName+"event");
if(SopingMode_e.tagName == "A" || SopingMode_e.tagName == "INPUT" || SopingMode_e.tagName == "IMG")
{ SopingMode_clicked=true;}
}



var win=window;
var exit=true;
function con()
{
(window.closed+"W "+win.closed+"W "+window.close+"-"+window+" e "+exit+"e ");

if(ShopingMode_InCart)
{
if (exit)//if(window.closed)
{
if(SopingMode_clicked)
{
}
else
{
if(confirm("There are items in the shopping acrt are you sure you want to exit !"))
{
}
else
{
var der=document.URL;
window.open(der,'navtej',"");
}
}
}
}
}

the code is working fine the prolem is with ambugity.

Thanks.

function HandleOnClose() {
if (window.event.clientX<0 && window.event.clientY < 0) {

window.open('http:www.google.com','Exit','toolbar=No,status=yes,scrollbars=yes,width=550,height=400');
}
}

Would you like to explain yourself, if you leave a homepage?

You can't force your visitors to stay.
But you can include a guestbook on your homepage to leave comments.
Otherwise it's very user-unfriendly and would you like to surf on such a site?

If you really want to have visitors, then show them interesting content.
Give them a REAL reason to look at your page and to return.

thnaks for ur comments i appriciate, actually the sonario in which I going to use it is when a user has put some things in the shopping cart and then if he
closes the browser , only a confirmation opens to know the choice of the user wheather he want to leave or stay.
