Hi All,

RE: 10g forms

I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to know when a user was navigating away from the current open
form because they had entered a new URL in the address bar and were trying to navigate to it?
The reason for this is that i would want to prompt the user to confirm that they wanted to exit the form as potentially they would have a record (in the form) flagged as being updated and as such no other user (including themselves) could susbequently access it.
So, I'm basically wanting to know if there is a way to catch the fact that the user is about to navigate to another web page.
Where would any e.g. javascript have to be entered?

Also, if this isn't the right forum, then where would anyone recommend that I post this matter?

Kind regards,

Tom
