can i disable control panel's close button?????

Guest_imported · Mar 5, 2001

hello there,

i want to execute a javascript function, when user closes the child window. for that, i've given a button in my code. when user clicks on it, i am calling a function which executes the code and then closes the window with self.close() method.
now, if user closes the window using the control panel's close button, then how can i restrict him?

can i disable control panel's close button?

i've tried to use Body Unload() event, but it doesn't serve my purpose. as, it will be fired every time the form in the window is submitted. Is there any event handler which can handle the window close event such as window close()?

any help would be appreciated.

thanks,
paras

Seems to me that if you override the 'Action' tag of your form by using a non-Submit button with a custom script ending with form.submit(), then you could set a flag somewhere in there that your Body Unload() event could check for ... e.g.

<html>
<head>
<script language="JavaScript">

</script>
</head>
<body onUnLoad="Body_Unload()">
<form METHOD=POST ACTION="some.cgi">
<input type="button" name="Button" value="Button" onClick="MySubmit()">
</form>
</body>
</html>
