Save form alert

[fnbrandao]

Hi,
Is there any way to get an alert, when someone fills a form and do not save and leaves the page, so do not loss the inputed data ?

ive not tried but a google around finds references to the window.onpopstate event, so I guess this would work if you placed it in a form_x.js file:

window.addEvent('onpopstate', function (e) {
  if (confirm('do you want to leave the page') === false) {
    e.stop();
  }
});

Tks will try it out, and post feedback !

Testing, but nothing is fired, will look at it deeper. If someone had a tip, let me know.
