Event for only onclose??? or how to manipulate the close button? 1

[khennes02]

Hi everyone,

Is there an Event handler that only gets executed when you close a window.
"onunloade(), onclose()" does not work for me, because it also get executed when you refresh a site.

Or is there a way that I can Disable the "close Button" (Cross Button, top right corner) on a Popup, or even better is a way to execute a function when that button is clicked.

Thanks Kai

Disable the "close Button" "

You're a bit power crazy ain't ya?

Try not to think about invading the privacy of other peoples pc, make you content interesting rather than force people to stay, and then browsers will return.

Ok I know that it is impossible to disable the Button, but is there no way that I can add some code (function) to the Button, so that some function only gets executed it the user closes that Popup.

if you created the popup -

you can detect when the popup window is being closed (onunload), call a function on the opener window that detects whether the pop up is still open and does whatever you desire.

I'd also add in some check to see if the opener window still exists before trying to execute a function on it.
