Avoid "leave this page" prompt

Is there an IE setting that can be turned on/off to avoid the "Do you want to leave this page" prompt in HTML5? A colleague of mine is receiving it when he flips between attachments and logs off. I only receive it when I log off.

Hi Angela,
This issue also observed in one customer message & I have addressed the same to development for correction.
If you find the list of expenses which cannot be accommodated in same page.
Now make some changes in any expense (DO NOT SAVE) & move to next page from next button.
You will get the message 'Are you sure you want to leave the page?' with two options
1. Stay on this Page
2. Leave this page.
This is not correct message as UI should not intend the user to leave the page.
I will update this post as soon as I have this information.
Regards,
Rahul Mishra

"Are you sure you want to leave this page?" on saving Publishing Page

Hi all,
we're getting some ... interesting ... behavior in IE.
Setup:
We have a page layout based on some content type. Both contain (besides other fields) a DateTimeField which is shown in edit mode.
When a user clicks "Save" after editing the page, he is presented a modal dialog saying "Are you sure you want to leave this page?" with the options to "stay" or "leave".
When a user clicks "leave" the following behaviour is as expected (changes are saved, page is working). When a user clicks "stay" he sometimes gets prompted for conflicts.
As soon as the DateTimeField is removed from the page layout (but is kept in the content type) there are no more such pop-up dialogues.
This happens only in IE 9/10/11. FF and Chrome work fine.
Do you have any suggestions, on how to fix this? Not the conflicts part, but the fact that this dialogue box is shown at all.

I already tried seeting IE (Security) Settings back to deafault and disabling add-ons. It did not help.
The site is accessed via https and is in the Trusted Sites list in IE.

Hi SomeTallGuy,
According to your description, my understanding is that the model dialog appears after you click Save.
My suggestion as below:
1. Set the Internet Explorer Security Setting to low.
2. If you have add your site to trusted sites, try to delete all the browser data, such as cookie, temporary files to test whether it works.

Are you sure you want to leave this page?

Periodically I start to get "Are you sure you want to leave this page?" message in OVM Manager 3.2.1 - if I click no, I get the message again. If I click yes, it logs me out... Often without any action from my side - or in the middle of my activities (so it doesn't look like it is related to any timeout).
I have disabled timeout in Tool and Resources - Preferences, so it is not suppose to log me out at all.
Any idea what is going on and how to fix it?
Thanks,
Alex

Very painful & I am also interested in a fix for this.
On 3.2.1 I am also getting this message though I only notice it when I am idle by not clicking on anything on the page.
On OVM 2.x I like to leave my screen open and it re queries the statuses. I like this UI more but the timeout or whatever is very annoying.
While I haven't been timed out right after recently doing something, when I launch jobs that take awhile I like that it shows me how much progress has made (cloned 101G of 500G etc)... Once you get timed out you lose the status and I don't see a way to get that dynamic job progress feedback anywhere without logging into the OVS and querying the file sizes as they progress on the file system.

In Yahoo Mail, when composing an email I get an "Asking to leave this page" panel; it does not matter whether i choose stay or leave, the panel pops up again....and again...the only way out is to Force Quite Firefox and start all over...help please...

Thanks for responding....but isn't your potential solution designed for Windows users? I have a Mac.
If it does apply to Mac, I am also hoping for something simpler as this could take weeks to isolate the problem and it would be more efficient to use another browser for mail
Also, I should have added, this problem occurs only occasionally and seemingly only when I am taking some time to compose a message

"Stay On" or "Leave This Page"?

When I'm replying to an email, the page will suddenly exit to the right.
I can't move it back...only get the "Stay or Leave this page" choice.
Either choice produces the spinning wheel of death...un-endingly!
Instead, if I open a new page in Safari, most (but not all) of my email response appears as a Draft copy.
I then have to try to remember and finish my resopnse.
What's happening?!!!
Don

Hi Don...
Stay or Leave this Page dialog you'll see on occasion but it should't cause the spinning beach ball.
Try deleting the Cache.db
Go to ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari
Move the Cache.db file from the com.apple.Safari folder to the Trash.
Restart your Mac, try Safari.
If you continue to have problems, go to Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
Click: Details
Type in the name of your email client top right corner of the window then click Remove Alll > Done.
That will delete the cookies for that website.
Quit then relaunch Safari to test.

How do I leave this page to make skype call?

how do I leave this pagwe to make skype call?

If by "leave this page" you mean this forum, the solution is simple. You can't make Skype calls from a browser page. You must download AND INSTALL the Skype application to do so. Click on the Downloads link at the top of this forum page, then open the Skype.dmg file that appears in your Downloads folder. Drag/drop the Skype icon onto the Applications folder icon IN THAT WINDOW to install Skype. Thereafter, you'll find it in your hard disk's Applications folder. That should do it.

HT204023 Hi, I'm Puthyrath. I have a problem on my iPad 4 wifi-3G about personal hotspot. I entered apn, username and password correctly, but when I leave this page, it didn't save, all fields become blank. Can anyone help me?

Hi, I'm Puthyrath. I have a problem on my iPad 4 wifi-3G about personal hotspot. I entered apn, username and password correctly, but when I leave this page, it didn't save, all fields become blank. Can anyone help me?

Update to above question:
Hello All,
To anyone with the same problem described above, on THEIR iPad (if it is running iOS 7.0.2):
Go to Settings; Mail, Contacts, Calendars; DELETE your *******@btinternet.com e-mail account, that you originally set up either using 'Other', or the 'BT' option which I am sure was in the list previous to the iOS 7 update.
Then ADD a NEW account choosing YAHOO from the list of options. DO NOT USE 'OTHER'.
Enter the correct details just as you (almost certainly) had already done in your previous attempts using 'other'.
When you see the 'verifying......' and 'the blue ticks' you should be able to exit settings and open your mail app and then receive all your 'old' e-mails again, AND be able to SEND as well.
All my 'old' e-mails, were NOT found in the 'old e-mail' folder though. THEY are still in my inbox.
So this fix worked for me.
After I deleted my account from 'OTHER' and put it in Yahoo, I like other people also ended up with more folders.
I hope this works for you on YOUR Apple devices.
Bob

How to prevent the "are you sure you want to leave this page?" prompt on Facebook?

I'm using Firefox 35.0.1. If I make a post on my Facebook timeline that contains a link, when I hit "Post" and the page goes to refresh to add my post to my timeline, it asks if I'm sure I want to leave the page. I've seen that messages on some sites before, for example, if I'm on a forum and I write a post and go to leave the page before hitting submit, it'll ask me that, but I've never seen it on Facebook until a couple of days ago.
Is there any way to turn this message off? Or even better, can it be turned off just on Facebook? Thanks.

Thanks, philipp! I guess Facebook must have made some changes to their code, but I'll make the change you suggested and see how it goes.

How to fix error message: Are you sure you want to leave this page? There is currently a request to the server pending. You may lose recent changes by navigating away.

I have been gettting this error message in safari for 4 days.
Any ideas? This is beyond frustrating. I haven't installed or downloaded anything in this time.
Thanks!

Unless you have an application open like Microsoft Word and have made changes to some work you have done go up to file and SAVE then you can leave the page wwithout any problems. this message comes mostely when you are in a browser. Just leave the page.

How to add for wikipages the popup " are you sure you want to leave this page" on edit

Our users complain about hitting the backspace button in a wiki page, sometimes the I.E. goes back and loose their changes. I could get a jquery popup but I don't know how to know that the wiki page is in edit mode and not in view mode.Do you know how/what
to check with javascript in order to know the mode of the page?
Thank you
Christos

Jquery has a specific function that allows you to add this sort of thing to general SharePoint pages. I've not tried it in my own environment but some good useful starter information can be seen on a similar thread at Stack exchange.
See if this is of any use for you

Getting "Leave this Page?" message: why?

The last few times I have been in a Forum Discussion, a pop-up drops from the top: "Stay on Page" or "Leave" - as if I had clicked something to indicate I wanted to leave. After selecting "Stay" SEVERAL times it goes away and everything seems ok.
Any clarification would sure be appreciated.
Ed

It happens when you are in the process of answering a question then go elsewhere to, say, check something out. If that option arises you should only need to click 'stay' once or click 'leave page' to do what research you need. When you are satisfied click on reply and go back to the answer you were on, a message will appear asking you if want to continue with a saved answer. Click on that and you will return to the answer you were working on. Hope this solves your dilemma.

AJAX Call make SP to show the "Are you sure you want to leave this page" dialog box

Hi all,
I have a problem while editing properties of a Page. We have a custom Content Types which includes a field with a custom type (and custom control). The Custom control includes an UpdatePanel. The control is a tree view, so each time we expand a node, there
is an AJAX call.
The control is displayed on the page on Edit Mode. When we use the control from Edit Mode, expanding each node result in displaying the dialog box to ask the user if he wants to leave or stay on the page.
When using the same control from the "Edit Properties" form, expending the nods works perfectly.
Also I couldn't reproduce the problem on FireFox, it only happens on IE.
Using fiddler I could see a difference between the Post requests depending on the above scenarios.
When using the custom Tree View from the Edit Page mode which result into the error, the POST request does not include the
x-microsoftajax: Delta=true
in the request header.
When using FF or the Tree View from the Edit Properties window, the above header is present and the dialog box is not shown.
Does anyone have an idea why I'm not having the the correct header with IE when using the control from Edit Mode?
Cheers,
Séb

Hi,
According to your post, an error occurred when you used Ajax in SharePoint.
Please do as follows:
1. Try to uncheck the Enable native XMLHTTP support option in IE's advanced options.
Go to Tool->Internet Options->Advanced and disable “Enable native XMLHTTP support”.
2. Use jQuery Ajax to call.

All of a sudden I am getting a pop up message that says, "do you want to leave this page or stay".

I have FF 28 and have for a long time, so that is not the problem. It is my default browser. I also have IE 10, W 7 and Avast. This problem just started a couple of weeks ago. Nothing on my pc has changed. I am trying to load an image, but it not working.

It is only happening on one site, but I have friends that it is happening to and they don't visit this site.
Would someone please tell me the danger of using an older version of Firefox. Is it going to blow up in my face, take all of my savings from the bank, What is the danger. I don't have anything personal on my PC, I even use an alias.
I like Firefox because of the apps like WOT, adblock plus, no squint, duckduckgo, Ghostery and being able to select colors for the toolbar that makes it easy to read.
The reason I don't want to upgrade: Let me count the reasons. The main reason is they try to force me to use their new versions. '''They upgrade my FF versions even though I have it set to never. ''' Because they fixed the tool bar so I can't condense it down to one line. and I know there is software that can fix that. When developers add new options why can't they leave the older options.
Also don't put me in the class of not trying new things. I bought my first PC in 1996 and replaced it every time a new OS came out because I wanted to learn it. I kept doing that until W 8 came out. I even bought a laptop so I could see what all the fuss was about. I did see.

"Stay on this Page" "Leave this Page" pops up when using SAP URL?

Has anyone else experience this pop-up message when an SAP URL (www.sap.com) is embedded in a Personas frame??
No problem with non-SAP URL such as from the google.com family.
Same problem persist even in the WTS environment.
I had a quick discussion with Tamas Hoznek today and he experienced the same problem.
Seems to be a recent problem. I already logged an OSS ticket on this.
Thoughts anyone??
Thanks,
Frank
