Differentiate between refresh and tab close browser in node.js

Question

Is there any socket method or any other way to differentiate between tab close and refresh browser in node.js?

your understanding is so wrong it's impossible to even say anything... Node.js is server side, there is no tabs or browser — Esailija, Jun 04 '14 at 11:37
yes node.js is server side. like 'disconnect' method is fired when we close the tab of browser or refresh the browser. I just want to differentiate between two. — Vardan, Jun 04 '14 at 13:39

What if the user clicks on the "refresh" button in the browser bar? – Sushi2all Jan 08 '21 at 13:36
