Hi,

JQuery :http://jquery.com/[^]

Jquery Detect unload or close : http://api.jquery.com/unload/[^]

Quote:
The exact handling of the unload event has varied from version to version of browsers. For example, some versions of Firefox trigger the event when a link is followed, but not when the window is closed. In practical usage, behavior should be tested on all supported browsers, and contrasted with the proprietary beforeunload event.

Try this :

$(window).on('beforeunload ',function() {
return 'Are you sure ?';
});

JavaScript

<script>
window.onbeforeunload = function (e) {
    e = e || window.event;

    // For IE and Firefox prior to version 4
    if (e) {
        e.returnValue = 'Sure?';
    }

    // For Safari
    return 'Sure?';
};
</script>
