Detect browser close

is java servlet able to detect when a user close an IE or NETSCAPE browser!!??

unfortunately, there is no reliable way unless the browser is IE or Netscape 6.0 or better....versions of NS prior to 6.0 did not support onclose() properly.
If in your case it IS IE and NS 6.0 or better, then you can use javascript onclose() and do whatever in that method.

Trouble detecting browser close in Internet Explorer

Please help!
I'm trying to detect when the browser closes (or tab closes, or page reloads, etc.) so that I can save user information. I've followed the advice of others on the web, and have it working with Firefox, but not IE. The code in my wrapper is below, which attempts to get access to the embedded swf object a variety of ways to presumably handle multiple browsers. PLEASE HELP!
// Function to get a reference to the embedded swf file
                    function getFlashMovieObject(movieName)
                      if (window.document[movieName])
                          return window.document[movieName];
                      if (navigator.appName.indexOf("Microsoft Internet") == -1)
                        if (document.embeds && document.embeds[movieName])
                          return document.embeds[movieName];
                      else // if (navigator.appName.indexOf("Microsoft Internet") != -1)
                        return document.getElementById(movieName);
Here's the code that calls this function:
                    window.onbeforeunload = function()
                        var myApp = getFlashMovieObject("MySwf");
                        return myApp.onCloseApplication();
Here's the code that embeds the swf:
                  var flashVars = {};
                  var strHref = window.location.href;
                  if ( strHref.indexOf("?") > -1 )
                        var strQueryString = strHref.substr(strHref.indexOf("?")+1);
                        var aQueryString = strQueryString.split("&");
                        for ( var iParam = 0; iParam < aQueryString.length; iParam++ )
                            var aParam = aQueryString[iParam].split("=");
                            flashVars[aParam[0]] = aParam[1];
                var params = {};
                params.quality = "high";
                params.bgcolor = "#ffffff";
                params.allowscriptaccess = "sameDomain";
                var attributes = {};
                attributes.id = "MySwf";
                attributes.name = "MySwf";
                attributes.align = "middle";
                  //create your instance of your SWF
                  swfobject.embedSWF("MySwf.swf", "flashContent", "100%", "100%", "10.0.0", "expressInstall.swf",
                    flashVars, params,attributes);

Can Flex detect browser close event?

Is Flex notified by the browser when the browser is closed
(or browser tab)? I need to be able to save any unsaved data in the
application before the browser closes.
Thanks in advance

Thanks for your reply.
I found a good example that I followed and got it working:
http://flexblog.faratasystems.com/?p=134

Detecting browser close

I would like to detect when the user closes the browser and
either 1) get the flash movie to save whatever data is unsaved or
2) determine from the flash movie if there is unsaved data and get
the browser to pop-up a message.
Does anyone have any ideas on this? Or can point me to any
resources?
Thanks
Scott

A close of the browser instance won't terminate the session. The session will simply timeout. The default timeout is 30 minutes, otherwise you can specify it in the web.xml.
If you want to terminate the session immediately on close of the browser instance, consider using the onunload event of the body in combination with some Javascript call to the server side. Keep two things in mind: 1) this doesn't work in older browsers and not at all in current Opera version (because the onunload event isn't been specified in the W3 HTML specification) and 2) this will lead to problems if you have opened the same site in multiple windows and/or tabs inside the same session, you can't keep track of them all. I wouldn't use the onunload event. Just let the session timeout.

Detect Safari browser close with the iPad 3

Detect browser close with the iPad 3
We have a web site being used on the iPad 3 through Safari.
Our web site is used in a public setting and multiple users login to use it at different times. We have a questions about user account security.
When a signed in user clicks the home button on the iPad , which minimize Safari and returns them to the home screen, can the user be signed out of our web site? We don’t want someone else to come and open the Safari browser and have access to the previous user's account information. Is there a client-side event that is triggered that we can handle so we can log the user out of the site?

Is the iPad shared by everyone at this public setting?
There is currently no way to handle different users on the iPad (or any iOS device).
They are designed as single user devices.
If your company is eligible for an Enterprise account, then you could write an app that could handle clearing user credentials but not in the current "normal" environment.

How to detect browser window move?

I want to know if there is certain event defined in Java to detect browser window move. Like in JavaScript, there is an event handler "onMove".
Thanks.

No, I think you can have "onMove" call a java function.

How to Detect browser crash

hi i want to know how to detect browser crash or the way to go about it , i can use any language to any api's plz specify me some solution .It would be really healpfull

paul_123 wrote: hi i want to know how to detect browser crash ..
Like the other person that replied, I do not quite understand why it is of interest that the end user's browser crashes. If, like they suspect, it is to do with your applet, I think the best solution is to launch the applet using webstart and forget the browser. If the end user launches a webstart based applet from the browser and the browser crashes, the applet will keep working just fine.
Is your applet publicly available? If so, what is the URL where we can see it?

Capturing browser close event

Hello everyone,
Even though this question has been answered before, I find that none of the answers seem to work for me.
My problem is the following: Locks are placed on records and tables at certain points in my application. But if the user simply closes the browser without closing the application properly, all the locks are still in place. So I need to catch an event that allows me to ABAP my way out of this.
I have the following BSP page which loads my application:
function startBSPApplication()
function endBSPApplication()
<frameset id="<%=guid %>_FRAMESET" rows="*,0" onload="startBSPApplication('<%=guid %>_A');" onunload="exitBSPApplication();" noresize framespacing="0" frameborder="0" border="0">
    <frame name="<%=guid %>_A" src="session_default_frame.htm">
    <noframes>This browser does not support frames.</noframes>
</frameset>
The start and end functions simply start and end a session, and I find myself unable to actually call an ABAP function in there. All ABAP code placed inside the javascript functions is called everytime the page is loaded, not everytime the function is called and that's not what I want.
I also already tried the <bsp:htmlbEvent> tag, but I couldn't get that to work either. I tried it like this:
Notice however that I wrote this on top of the frameset. Does this mean that the onunload event will be called twice and does this cause a problem?
I tried to call the onDestroy event from within my endBSP function, but nothing happened either.
<htmlb:content design="design2003" >
<htmlb:page title="Capture browser close " >
    <htmlb:form>
      <bsp:htmlbEvent id      = "myid"
                      onClick = "onDestroy"
                      name    = "onDestroy"/>
      <script for="window" event="onunload" type="text/javascript">
           alert('Starting the Server Event');
           onDestroy();
       </script>
    </htmlb:form>
</htmlb:page>
</htmlb:content>
Does anybody have another suggestion, or notice me overlooking something?
Thank you in advance,
Niels.

Hi Eddy,
I can't find anything really helpful in that blog. Except maybe adding the onbeforeunload attribute to my frameset and calling a JS function to back it up.
The problem still persists that any ABAP you put in a JS function is executed regardless of wether or not the function is actually called.
I need to get to my DO_HANDLE_EVENT somehow when the user closes the window.

Detect browser inactivity

How is it possible for an applet to detect if the browser window becomes passive (user changed to another window)? I've seen an applet to do this but I don't understand how it's implemented.

Jo,
          Pls refer SnoopServlet.java(weblogic_home/examples/servlets) which
          comes with weblogic installation.

I think I would put the browser discovery code (if I really had to use it) in controller. (Or JavaScript).
