Hi:
You can detect browser is closing just using onUnload tag in body. Just do
this:
function doLogout() {
document.formLogout.action='logout.jsp';
document.formLogout.formOption.value='logout';
document.formLogout.submit();
}
<body onUnload=doLogout();>
... here comes your html code
Then insert a form
<form method="POST" name="formLogout">
<input type="hidden" name="formOption">
</form>
