Question

I want to open a survey link on winow/tab close and on url change with confirmation box Ok/Cancel. Need to redirect user to survey link on Ok button click. I am using the code as follows:

function ConfirmClose(e) {
   if (!e) e = window.event;   
   e.cancelBubble = true;

   if (e.stopPropagation) {
    e.stopPropagation();
    e.preventDefault();
   }
   if (e.clientY < 0)
   {
    var leave_message ="Wait! Would you like to respond to a quick Survey";
    if (confirm(leave_message)) {
    window.open("www.surveylink.com");
    }
  }
}

window.onbeforeunload = ConfirmClose;

Its working fine in i.e. 8,9. But not work in firefox, chrome and higher version of i.e. Please suggest.

Check Armins answer on window.onunload is not working properly in Chrome browser. Can any one help me? , Chrome inhibits some functions during the onunload event that are also confrim boxes. You can popup a dialog by just returning a String which then cann be confirmed/canceld which retuns into page leave/stay.
