Hi Guys

In my project I need to popup a window when user closes the browser.

I need to show the popup window only when the user clicks on (x) button of the browser(Top right).

Popup should not show in other unload events.

Any help will be appreciated.

 Thanks in advance.

You have not been able to perform this action for a long time now in browsers since they have pop up blockers installed. Plus there is no way to really tell if the user closed the window with the X. There is some x/ positioing hack in some browsers, but that is a limited number . Plus there are other ways to close the window other than the X. Best bet is to use onbeforeunload and code the application to understand the difference between a postback and closing the browser through some boolean flags.

Hi

try the following code, I have tested in IE 6/7 

Enjoy the code~ 

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--
function window.onbeforeunload()   
{   
    if( event.clientX>document.body.clientWidth && event.clientY<0 || event.altKey )   
    {   
        window.event.returnValue="are you sure to exit?";   
    }
}
//-->
</SCRIPT>

 

Hi BoldFox777

its working perfectly for Internet Explorer.

Is it possible can you get me some code that works for Fair fox also.

Thanks for your help.

 

Try this:

if ( window.event )
{
 window.event.returnValue = 'Are you sure you want to exit?';
}
else
{
 return 'Are you sure you want to exit?';
}
