How do I open a form on page exit

Question

I'm now dealing with a client request to open a form when the user leave the page. Can that be done?

I think you are looking for

An event that fires before the unload event when the page is unloaded.

While this event is well known, it will fire an event but the page will be closed and the form will not be loaded. – David Salzer Nov 04 '09 at 17:53

It seems to be impossible to create my own form and override onbeforeunload or anything else. I guess blocking it is the right thing though..

What we did is to pop a form and use the regular onbeforeunload. if the user wants to go - he will. But if he stays - he will get the questionnaire.
