mvc window.unload firing when webgrid is updated

Question

In my MVC app, i am trying to capture some user info when the user is closing the browser window. My page also has a webgrid with pagination. I have tried using:

$(window).unload(function()

but the problem that i am facing is that whenever a user navigates to a different page of the webgrid, the .unload function fires off too. I am trying to find a way to fire off the .unload function only at the time of closing the browser window. Thank you.

Just in case anyone else is also having the same problem, the code posted by 'Syno' did the trick for me:
