Recently I've worked on getting the browser to prompt the user if they want to leave the page when changes have been made to a form. This is done with the onbeforeunload event, and each browser displays a popup in a slightly different way. You are also able to set the text that displays in the popup, but I've found that while IE and Chrome use this text, Firefox ignores it.Here's some good links on how to work with this event:http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1244535/alert-when-browser-window-closed-accidentallyhttp://stackoverflow.com/questions/803887/can-i-pop-up-a-confirmation-dialog-when-the-user-is-closing-the-window-in-safarihttp://stackoverflow.com/questions/7255649/window-onbeforeunload-not-workinghttp://stackoverflow.com/questions/2253522/ie-onbeforeunload-not-firing-extenralinterface-callbackhttp://stackoverflow.com/questions/9480302/onbeforeunload-w-ajax-does-not-work-w-ie

Let's face it, no one really knows what's going to occur 3-5 years from now. No one is even sure what the iPhone 5 will be 3-5 months from now! The one constant seems to be that devices that can display web content are multiplying. Aside from the usual PCs, Laptops, Netbooks, and Smart Phones, we also have tablets (iPad, Galaxy, etc), gaming ...

Recently a website I maintain was no longer verified by Google Webmaster tools. Odd, since it had been working for some time using the HTML method. I downloaded the HTML file from Goole Webmaster, and uploaded it once again to the site. I noticed that the previous version was zero length file, and the new file from Google has some text in it (a google-site-verification property). I don’t remember this from before, but either way, it works now. We have to all remember that these Google tools are free, and they will change them whenever they want. There was a ...
