Title:
javascript confirm-box is ok-ed or form submitted when closing tab
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
1. so you have a page with a code attached..
2. you push submit-button, but don't choose ok or cancel
3. you close the window (at least in ubuntu/gnome3 you can close it)
4. the browser will submit the form anyhow and the script in 'something' will
be loaded in the server side.
5. You will not see this in the browser because the window was closed.
6. see the server log or make a script that does something and you will see
that it was really loaded.
you have for example a product delete button, you push it, close the
window and don't want to remove the product, but it is removed anyhow.
Possible fixes and notes:
1. when a confirm-box (maybe alert box also) is open, disable the possibility
of closing the tab (good)
2. run the javascript code to the end with option "cancel" chosen (maybe this
is not a good idea because there might be another confirm-box coming afterwards
in the code, or lots of code is run.
3. stop the javascript immediately, don't submit the form and close the tab.
(this also could be good option imho)
