Hi,
This is just an idea, but I think that you generally can't prevent that. The user can always click refresh or use Ctrl-R (or something like that).
A solution might be opening the page, on which you want to disable reload, in a popup without menubars.
Then you capture all key events to prevent the user from using shortcuts.
But, I don't see why you should want to prevent such a thing? Can you tell me more on this?
Think your question about the alert is a bit the same. This is a system operation which can always be executed.
This is just an idea, but maybe you could use onblur? But after that the page will still be closed.

Any suggestions are more than welcome.
There's a LOT of work to do, so judge fairly.
