there's no way in js to detect the actual clicking of the "X".
you can prevent the window from closing in IE using "onbeforeunload", but you need to modify all other nav links to not trigger it on normal navigation.

Code:
<html>
<head>
<script language="javascript">
var ok = false;
function okToClose() {
if (!ok) return "Save Changes?" +
"\nClick OK to close without saving, or" +
"\nClick Cancel, then save your changes.";
}
</script>
</head>
<body onbeforeunload="return okToClose();">
<a href="otherPage.html" onclick="ok=true;">ok</a>
</body>
</html>while (!succeed) try();
