    closing IE window

    i m trying to find out when the user is closing an IE window and give him a message box telling him to close from another place and cancel his request to close the window.
    any help would be appreciated .

    I have the same question. I got it to work with vbscript (and javascript)

    Sub window_onclose()

    Msgbox "Closing"
    End Sub

    It worked great... but the problem was if the user refresh the screen, he gets the msgbox also.

    But I never look further into it. If you get it.. please post it.

    Thanks

    body onUNload

    I would use <body ="onunload=callYourOwnJScriptFunction()">
    where you can re-open the same window and give the user any instructions.

    yes i know that but i dont want him to close the window because this window is a part of an ASP project with VB ocx that i have to set to nothing when i get out thats the reason i want to know how to cancel the closing of the window like in VB when you write cancel=true.
