Java Popup on Leave Problem

Re: Java Popup on Leave Problem

1.Yet again, you forgot the <!---------begin slashes

2.That is how the script is supposed to work.

3.You could put a "Exit Site" button on your site that leads to a page
that says "Thanks for visiting" or something like that, and you can put
the script on that page. Other than that, I see no other way using only
JS.

They don't trouble me. Doesn't your browser block popups? :-P

Well, there's the first answer to your previous question, though not
necessarily relevant to this post as such.

Correct.
"The onunload event occurs when the user agent removes a *document* from
a window or frame." (emphasis mine)

Scripts in HTML documents

How are you supposed to know whether they are leaving the current page
to go to another page on your site, or to a different site? More to the
point, why do you think you have a right to know?

Just get rid of the HTML comment altogether. It's not necessary.

A) Popup's are evil... Why do you feel the need to bother your user?

B) The script is working as it should... You leave that page (regardless of
what else is in the browser) so it fires the event.

C) If you using Frames (also evil) why the need for a popup?

Thx!

It doesn't need them.

Just get rid of the Begin and End lines completely.
You're not going to come across a browser that isn't Javascript aware anymore.

You should also stop calling Javascript "Java" in your subject lines.
It's like referring to a carpet as a "car".
Javascript is not a form of Java.

Re: Java Popup on Leave Problem

It's not for advertising. It's to remind them to bookmark the site or
join the email reminder list. Is that "evil" too?

If not evil, it's at least very rude.
Imagine you're walking out the door of a shop and the shopkeeper
runs up and grabs your shoulder and asks you to sign his guestbook.

Please quote appropriate parts of the message you're responding to.

I assume this is a porn site as they are the kinds of sites that usually
use things like this.

Not that I know that from experience mind you...

As somebody else already indicated, how is "it" supposed to know when a
user leaves your site as opposed to just the page?

It is bad to use pop-ups for negative reasons. I'd venture to say that
at least 50% of users block them now because of assholes who install
pop-ups and -unders to advertise crap.
