Is there anyway to prevent onbeforeunload from being called when clicking on mailto link in chrome. In FF, Safari, IE it is working fine.
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.min.js">
google.load("jquery", "1.3.2");
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
window.onbeforeunload = confirmExit;
});
function confirmExit() {
return "Are you sure?";
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<a href="mailto:[email protected]?subject=test mail&body=Hello%20World">Mail Link</a>
</body>
