Question

I have some web application at say http://www.somewebsite.com, when user refreshes the page, I want it to navigate to say http://www.google.com or anything else.

What I tried was attach event

window.onunload = function(){...}

and

window.beforeunload = function(){...}

I tried

window.location = "http://google.com"

for some reason it is not working.

Anybody has idea how to solve this problem?

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

It CANNOT be done. The browser does not allow change of window url inside onunload or onbeforeunload. So, anybody else who is trying to do the same dont waste your time.
