Detect Facebook App Canvas Unloaded

Question

I need to detect that a user unloads my Facebook app (navigates to somewhere else or logs out of Facebook). How can this be done? I have tried:

FB.Event.subscribe('auth.logout', function(response) {
    console.log('logged out');    
});

But this never fires :(

Answer 1

why not try to listen to the window unload event rather than using the Facebook API:

window.addEventListener('unload', function(event) {
   console.log('Bye bye!');
});

This should catch the situations you need
