'beforeunload' Chrome Issue

Question

I have this simple piece of code -

$(window).bind(\'beforeunload\', function(){
    alert(\"Good Bye\")
});

Works great with Firefox, IE8 but

Answer 1

Try this:

function LogTime(){

jQuery.ajax({
  type: "POST",
  url: "log.php",
  data: "",
  cache: false,
  success: function(response){

  }
});

}

 $(window).bind('beforeunload', function(){
     LogTime();
     return "You're leaving?";
 });

It seems that as long as you return a string for this event at the end of function body, you can run code before that string.
