Hello there!

I have a problem. I need to create js function to confirm browser reload with confirm() function. I know i need to use function from title together with executecommand('Stop') for IE. This is for one admin panel that i'm creating (to confirm user delete etc.).

i tryed something like this:

function confirm(){
if (!confirm("Example"))
window.stop();
return false;
}

but it didn't work although it worked if i putted it directly to onload element (onload='javascript:window.stop();return false;') of a link tag.


Any help would be great.

Anybody???

Why use window.stop() which isn't supported by IE?

Lotar, as far as I know, you cannot stop a reload in a consistent way on every browsers.

As Chris pointed, if the command is placed on a link, you can use the onclik property.
The onclick is always executed first, and if the function called return false, the href will not be followed.

Now, if a user clicks the reload button, I don't think you will be able to prevent it in a cross-browser javascript code.

Thanks... i didn't know that "return false" would stop the href...
