Javascript: Onbeforeunload

Question

i have the following javascript

    <script type="text/javascript">
    window.onbeforeunload = function (beforeclose) {

        var message = 'Are you sure that you want to close the greenhouse!!!';
        if (typeof beforeclose == 'undefined') {
            beforeclose = window.event;
        }
        if (beforeclose) {
            beforeclose.returnValue = message;
        }

        return message;
    }
    </script>

This method is an alert for the user before closing. What i want is to use a method after closing the window. Like: "When the following page is closed, do something". Is there not something like onafterunload?

Look this post is the same problem: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16707249/detect-close-windows-event-by-jquery — Daniel Melo, Mar 27 '14 at 11:51

No, there is not as after unload is when browser or tab is closed then you can't run. Yes you can handle server side session out event.

No there are not such event available but You can use:

$(window).unload(function() {
    //do something
}
