This is a javascript question, more appropriate for a list dealing in it,
but here's something that might work:
<script type="tetx/javacsript">
var glbBlnNothingthingChanged = true;
</script>
Set the onchange attribute of all form fields to set the global boolean to
false:
<input type="text" .... onchange="glbBlnNothingthingChanged = false;">
and the onclick of all links o return the boolean:
<a href="xyz.jsp" onclick="return glbBlnNothingthingChanged">Click me</a>
