Is it possible in mobile safari to get notified when the user clicks on refresh button. I want to prevent users from accidentally leaving the page as they might have some unsaved data on the page. I have a code that shows a prompt in safari desktop but for touch safari it just does not show anything and refreshes the page.

The code you did is something like this?

$(window).bind('beforeunload', function() {
    return "You have unsaved stuff";
});

​ It seems it doesn't work in mobile Safari
