Hi Friends,
I have a problem for logout operation. whenever i close the browser of my application, I should indicate that the user has logged out without clicking the logout button.. I hav written a function on window close. The problem is that function is called for each time when i make a navigation to another window in my application.

Please help me how to solve this problem.

You don't need to inform the user that they have been logged out. If they close the window, they've logged themselves out (as long as you've coded that), or maybe there's a timeout after which they'll be logged out.

Hi friends,
Thanx for ur timely help. It works well.
I found another solution to check whether the close button is clicked or not regardless of whether the browser is maximised or minimised.
it goes like this.......

//To check whether the user has clicked on the close button on top of window
function initUnload()
{
var top=self.screen Top;
//alert ("top"+top);
if (top>9000)
{

alert("Window is closed!!!!!!");
}
else if (top<0)
{
// check whether the user has minimised the window and closed it using right click options.

alert("Window is closed!!!!!!");

}
}

window.onunload = initUnload;

onunload works in IE, FF, Netscape, Safari. Only Opera doesn't support it properly. See link and the famous event compatibility tables.

I faced the problem before but could not resolve it,
I searched for a javascript function to send a request to server page when the window is closed, and I tried onUnload.
the problem with onUnload is that it is executed even if I try to refresh the page.

You can use self.screenTop as suggested earlier, but I don't think it's supported by all browsers.

sorry me but it is not the good way

You can write an script(ASP/ASP.Net/...) that chek your user that is in your web application or not!

that is not good!!!!

True. Logouts should be dealt with on the server side. If the user closes the browser, let them. Log them out automatically using sessions if there's a period of inactivity, say 30 minutes. Then you don't have to worry about detecting if the user has closed the browser.
