Popup hidden event

[Ralfas]

Is there an event for the popup being hidden/closed?

I've looked in the Docs but couldn't find anything relevant.


Many thanks,
Ralfas

You should be able to do something like the following in the popup.

addEventListener('unload', function () {

  // Code to execute.

  }, false);

Unfortunately not: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=31262

Antony's suggestion in that issue seems serviceable:

Another idea for a workaround occurred to me today - create a message port between the 
popup and the background page, and then have the background page add a listener to the 
onDisconnect event of the Port.

Can you ask around whether my idea is acceptable?
