Hi all, I have a cgi script which is connected to a database.If the user 
closes the browser, I need to have a javascript event such as onUnload() 
event which calls a seperate cgi file and does the clean up job such as 
closing the database etc. But onUnload() event also is happening if the 
user presses the refresh button on the browser. I do not want to clean up 
the database functions if it is refreshed. I want it only if he closes the 
broswer.
Any idea of how to trap the browser close event without the event being 
called when refreshed?

onUnload() is called when user refreshes the page also. I am using IE5.0 
and netscape 4.7 browsers.

Is there any other event such as onExit() event ?? if so what is the 
syntax? or any other possible way of achieving this?

Please help me.
