I am trying to execute a function when the user clicks on the back button of a browser. For chrome & firefox, I have achieved it with html5 "popstate" event. I'm not being able to capture the back button click event in IE8. In my case, I need to capture the back button click event even if the url/location hash doesn't change. Anyone to help ??
window.onbeforeunload = function (e) {
var e = e || window.event;
var msg = "Do you really want to leave this page?"
// For IE and Firefox
if (e) {
e.returnValue = msg;
}
// For Safari / chrome
return msg;
};
Well, from google search I found this link , it seems that you can differentiate between a refresh and a click back:
window.onunload = function(e) {
// Firefox || IE
e = e || window.event;
var y = e.pageY || e.clientY;
if(y < 0) alert("Window closed");
else alert("Window refreshed");
}
event.pageY | event.clientY : detect the location the mouse.
window.onunload :is responsible for executing an instruction when the page is closed.
I didn't try it myself, but hope this would help.
