Load new page on site exit

Aug 26th, 2005

Is it possible to have a small page load (saying thanks for visiting etc.) when the user closes my website?

Thanks

Pop-ups are generally hated by everyone, even if it is just to say thank you.

Just a warning.

  var win=window.open('your popup url', 'thank you', 'window_options');
 }
</script>

 function thankYou(){
  var win=window.open('your popup url', 'thank you', 'window_options');

Sorry i mistyped 'onUnload'
(working example @ http://www.geocities.com/cppforlife/.../thankyou.html)

 Help with Code Tags 
 HTML and CSS Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
 
<html>
<head>
 <title>Thank You!!!</title>
 <script language=javascript>
  function thankYou(){
   var win=window.open("panel.html", "win");
  }
 </script>
</head>
 
<body onUnload="thankYou()">
<a href="http://www.yahoo.com">Y!</a>
 
 
</body>
</html>
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">

<html>
<head>
 <title>Thank You!!!</title>
 <script language=javascript>
  function thankYou(){
   var win=window.open("panel.html", "win");
  }
 </script>
</head>

<body onUnload="thankYou()">
<a href="http://www.yahoo.com">Y!</a>


</body>
</html>

code above checked in IE and worked properly..
Also replace 'panel.html' with url of you thenk you page.

If you want to change size of the window and other attributes add third argument to open function like below

Help with Code Tags

HTML and CSS Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)

var win=window.open("panel.html", "win", "left=20,top=20,width=500,height=500");

Good luck.
