Confirm leaving page without saving

I am wondering if it is possible to warn a user wich is leaving the page without saving the content in FCKeditor. For example with javascript onUnload or onbeforeunload.

The messega must only apear when there are changes in the FCKeditor and the user hasn't clicked on the "save" button.

Please help me out!

Thanks!

Re: Confirm leaving page without saving

This is not something to be done by FCKeditor, but by the page containing it. You should definitely use the onbeforeunload event, combined with the IsDirty() function of FCKeditor to check if changes where made (see _samples/html/sample08.html).
