Can I prevent the "Are you sure you want to leave this form" message
Is it possible to suppress the "Are you sure you want to leave this form" if there are no changes?
I would have to say it's a bug in Safari 3.x, as it apparently worked in Safari 2.x. I'm sure a bug report has already been filed on this, but if you want to give feedback to Apple about it and encourage them to fix it sooner rather than later, use this Feedback link.

My safari is blocked. When I press a window comes up sasking Are you sure you want to submit this form again? and it will not allow me to cancel or submit
These are your options:
1. Restore the iPhoto library from the most recent backup that predates the issue.
Advantages: Always works, if library damage is causing the problem and the backup is intact.
Disadvantages: Impossible if you don't have a backup. All changes made since the backup are lost.
2. Repair or rebuild the library. Be sure to back it up first.
Advantages: May solve the problem with no loss of data.
Disadvantages: May fail. May take a long time if the library is large.
3. Scavenge the library with a third-party application called "iPhoto Library Manager," which you can find in a web search. From the application's menu bar (not the iPhoto menu bar), select Library ▹ Rebuild.
Advantages: All images should be preserved.
Disadvantages: All books, calendars, and slideshows will be lost. -
"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.

Internet Explorer
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,
AlexVery 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. -
Safari problem: iOS7 on iPad - Apple ID Support - Stuck on "Are you sure you want to submit this form again?"
Now Safari is totally stuck. Neither the "submit" nor the "cancel" button works.
Since verifying Apple ID requires Safari (Google Chrome doesn't work because verifying email links only to Safari), it is impossible for me to change my Apple ID preferences.
HELP!!!!Close Safari completely and reboot the iPad.
Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the Safari app and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up. -
Given that the turn off javascript option will be disabled - how do I close a page that does not allow me to leave by giving a "are you sure you want to leave" pop up question but then redirects to itself where it again asks that question perpetually?
The only way to kill a page like that sofar was to disable javascript and then close the tab.
Now I will have to close the browser - and possibly loose all the tabs I have open.
I want a javascript quick switch - allowing me to easily disable javascript for any page at will.
(esp for some of my older, slower netbooks)
Or at least a "FORCE CLOSE" option for malicious webpages.Hi ronc2, there isn't a specific setting for this. Firefox's built-in JavaScript settings allow you to control several aspects of scripts*, but unfortunately not this one.
I previously tried to find some other options for individually turning off this event, but I couldn't find a way. Someone might be able to create an add-on to solve this problem, but it will take someone cleverer than I.
Extensions that disable scripts on a site-specific basis:
* If you regularly visit some sites which do this, you can block JavaScript on that specific site using the YesScript extension. Unfortunately, other script-based functionality will be blocked as well.
* YesScript does not preemptively block scripts on every site. If you have to visit a lot of random sites and want to take a paranoid approach of having scripting blocked until you see as much of the site as you can see without running scripts, then the NoScript extension would be for you. But even then it's "all or nothing".
''* These include: JavaScript enabled yes/no, override right-click menu yes/no, change order of windows yes/no, move and resize windows yes/no, close windows yes/no, specific features of pop-up windows, change images yes/no, detect copy/cut/paste and modify selection yes/no.'' -
How can I stop the "Are you sure you want to close this window?" box?
Hello,
Could someone please tell me how to stop safari/google from warning when there is text written in the search query box of google and I try to close the window? The message runs as follow: "*Are you sure you want to close this window?* You have entered text on "Google". If you close this window, your changes will be lost. Do you want to close this window anyway?"
I'm using Safari 3.2 and I have my preferences set to open new links in new windows rather than in tabs. I did try unchecking the warning message for closing multiple tabs, despite the fact that I'm not using tabs. However, that didn't work.
Thanks in AdvanceI would have to say it's a bug in Safari 3.x, as it apparently worked in Safari 2.x. I'm sure a bug report has already been filed on this, but if you want to give feedback to Apple about it and encourage them to fix it sooner rather than later, use this Feedback link.

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 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
ChristosJquery 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

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. -
I can't figure it out!!
Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode? <br />

This just started on both my lap top and desk top. MSN is my home page. I would like to turn this action off, but don't know how.
You're flat-out wrong and you should really try to refrain from passing off your opinion as fact. I happen to be the admin for my organization's SharePoint site and when I use Safari on my MacBook Pro with OSX 10.9 I see this error/warning message all the time on our portal. However, when I use Firefox on my Mac or when I'm using my Windows 8.1 laptop (with IE 11) I NEVER see the message.
Hey, I get it, you HATE Microsoft and get your kicks out of blaming all the world's problems on them. But please don't pass off your irrational stance as the truth... because it's not.
Thanks,

PHP can only be run from a server.
I looked up why this was happening and I found people saying I needed to enable php and Apache.
Correct.
I did the steps to enable it but Safari would still only open a .php file as html code.
The only way to run PHP in Safari is through the address bar.

Well, I should have realized deleting things using terminal was extremely risky. I did it anyway, looking through more forums, learning about directories I needed to delete and how to delete them.
Which forums are those? Most of that information on the internet is out of date at best and often flat out wrong. In the future, it would be best to ask here on Apple Discussions.
Did this begin, and I'm sure it did, when I was so foolishly deleting directories by copying and pasting directions on forums on how to delete mysql?
No doubt. Don't feel too bad. I don't know of anyone who has used ever used UNIX and didn't delete their home directories at some point - or worse.
I don't just want to drag back the deleted apps one at a time, I want to get all of my mistakes off.
You can always boot from your install disk, use Disk Utility to erase your startup drive, then reinstall a factory-fresh OS. I do that every couple of years, when I get a new computer, or on a major OS upgrade. It helps to clean out a lot of junk.
