sockjs closing before onbeforeunload

[Chris-S]

I'm using a check to make sure the user understands they are in the middle of a game when they hit exit

window.onbeforeunload = function() {

if(ConditionJoined)

return "Leaving this page will close any games or chats launched from this room";

}

But when when I click the browsers alert to stay on the same page. socket.onclose is fired.

I have no other occurrences of onbeforeunload.

BUMP!

I've been forced to comment out line 569 and 570

// utils.attachEvent('beforeunload', unload_triggered);
// utils.attachEvent('unload', unload_triggered);

This allows my client code to hook into onbeforeclose & onclose to send a [WINDOW_CLOSING] msg to the server, I then call sock.close()

Is this safe to do? and or is there a better way - such as an option to disable or hook into?

There isn't any code to attach to 'beforeunload' in the library. Did you add that yourself?
