This is strange and very insecure. You should let the tab load and
redirect to the PayPal page after the tab has finished doing everything
it should do.
I had a similar problem though. I needed a page to give PayPal time to
process a transaction. I did this with a fake progress bar, which waited
1 minute and then reloaded the page. If the transaction has been
completed, I sent the license, but if the transaction hadn't been
completed, I showed a message saying that the license would be delivered
manually at a later time after additional checks had been performed.
Kind regards,

I have a problem I need to solve with a web page i've set up.. On my page
(my domain) I have forms that submit to an external domain (paypal) and
open a new named tab on submission. I need to be able to block further
actions until the paypal page load is complete. Currently, I have simply
set up a timer with an overlay and visual feedback letting the user know
that "stuff is being done," but since the response time from paypal can
vary greatly, I'm hoping there is a way to know when the tab has completed
loading, with a backup "max time" so that if the paypal load barfs, page
functionality is still returned.
Is this sort of thing possible? I've researched, but if it can be done
apparently my search terms aren't the correct ones.
Thanks in advance for any help. I'm afraid javascript (other than very
basic stuff) is not one of my strengths.
