This is the basics of what I use now...
function check_form_data_for_unload(event_obj)
{
var form_data_message = "You have unsaved data.";
if (window.form_changed) {
if (event_obj)
event_obj.returnValue = form_data_message;
else
return form_data_message;
}
}
window.form_changed = false;
window.onbeforeunload = check_form_data_for_unload;
If I change a form value, I simply set form_changed to true. I do a
bit more than what I show here, but this should be good enough to get
you started.
