Profound "Confirm Navigation prompt window"

Post by nascar88 »

Is there a way NOT TO SHOW this Prompt window when you refresh your browser. The two options you have is "Leave this Page" or Stay on this page".

My first question is why are you refreshing the browser?

There is a very specific reason for that confirmation. If you refresh the screen, it ends your job on the system and starts another. Surely this is not what you want if you are in the middle of a program. So I wonder if this is what you really want.

What we are doing is pushing data to our main website using an iframe. The profound program is run inside this iframe and is an inquiry program only. I would like to see an option on the record format that would either tell profound to end the job without prompting for this message or to prompt for this message.

There is a way to tell Profound UI not to show that confirmation when the PUI page is being unloaded.

In JavaScript, you can set this flag:

Code: Select all


pui.skipConfirm = true;

This can be done using the "onload" event of a record format, or through an included JavaScript file that runs the code inline.
