I want to run my own JavaScript function when the page tries to refresh (either by F5 or clicking refresh button on the browser) and block the refresh action (must be cross-browser compatible). It would be better with an example. Thanks! Sanket |

Hi sansahu,
Please try with this example
<html>
<body onKeyDown="checkSpecialCharacter()">
<center>
<script>
//verify for netscape/mozilla
var isNS4 = (navigator.appName=="Netscape")?1:0;
function checkSpecialCharacter()
{
if(window.event && window.event.keyCode == 116)
{
// Capture and remap F5
window.event.keyCode = 505;
}
if(window.event && window.event.keyCode == 505)
{ // New action for F5
checkF5();
return false;
// Must return false or the browser will refresh anyway
}
}
function checkF5()
{
alert('F5 key was pressed by sansahu');
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
Regards

Hi there, Its working for the F5 button in IE. But, not in firefox :(. I am searching the javascript for controlling browsers Refresh Button. As you can seen it on http://pages.google.com. When you create a webpage, while working on it if you refresh the page the refresh button is trapped and the save function is executed. Thanks! Sanket |
