Javascript, onunload event, and multiple frames

Crundy · Mar 30, 2001

I am trying to capture the onunload event in Netscape 4 using this piece of javascript:

<script>
var exit=true;

function xit(){
if (exit)
open("URL","","width=390,height=200&quot

}

</script>

with <FRAMESET cols="whatever" onunload="xit()"> etc

It works fine with a two window frameset, but not with a three window frameset (regardless of which frameset tag I place the onunload attribute)

Anyone have any ideas?

you mean
<frameset .... onunload="xit()">
<frameset ...>
<frame ...>
<frame ...>
</frameset>
<frame ...>
</frameset>
doesn't work ?

then try putting the call to onunload in each <frameset ...> tag, then in each <body ..> of each frame ... if it's still not working, maybe you should read the faq on event handling
