Hi Metajack,


I'm trying to send an message to all users on the onbeforeunload event for the window. So If a user navigates away or closes the browser tab, other will get that message. Below are my codes but it is not working


window.onbeforeunload = function(){ myUnloadEvent(); }
function myUnloadEvent() {
var ownjid = $('#hid_jid').val();
var curruname = ownjid.split("@");
var ownername = curruname[0].toUpperCase();

var yourid = $('#yourID').val();

var timeNow = new Date();
var hours = timeNow.getHours();
var minutes = timeNow.getMinutes();
var seconds = timeNow.getSeconds();
var timeString = "" + ((hours > 12) ? hours - 12 : hours);
timeString += ((minutes < 10) ? ":0" : ":") + minutes;




var allpubval = $('#pubroomval').val();
var text = 'save';
allpubval = allpubval.split('##');
var ulength = allpubval.length;
for(var i=0;i<ulength;i++){
var sendjid = allpubval[i];
Arthur.connection.sync = true;
var msg = $msg({to: sendjid, type: 'chat',stamp: timeString, pname: ownername,pid: yourid,modetype: 'public'}).c('body').t(text);
Arthur.connection.sync = true;
Arthur.connection.send(msg);
Arthur.connection.flush();
}


}

I don't have much experience with onbeforeunload, but this patch may help:
https://github.com/metajack/strophejs/issues/16

The problem is that XHR is asynchronous, so the requests don't finish before the page is destroyed.

Hi Metajack,

I could not able to see this patch in the core.js which is in the github. But I added the below thing in my strophe.js and found that it is still incorrect.

//req.xhr.open("POST", this.service, true); //commented this line
var async = !('sync' in this && this.sync === true);//added this line
req.xhr.open("POST", this.service, async);

Please tell me If I am wrong and also help to how I can add this functionality.

Thanks

Hi Metajack,

Please let me know to my above written points.

Hi Metajack,

Please take a look at this post and let me know how I can send a stanza before browser close. I have applied the above patch but it is not working.

Thanks

Sorry, I'm not sure what I can do to help. I don't have any experience with this issue directly, and I don't have the time to go dig into myself.
