Intercept Page->Save from Javascript?

[theo]

Hello

Is there a way for a module to get an event via JS/JQuery when (actually before) a Page is saved?

For example for showing an alert like "There are unsaved changes" or saving these changes automatically (Ajax)?

Thank you.

@dragan Thanks, but this ist PHP, right? I need JS.

But I think this seems to work afaics now.

$("#submit_save").bind("click", function() { alert('beforesave'); return true; });

Thank you.

Yes, that's PHP, but you can also inject JS in a hook with

$js = "<script>your script here...</script>";
$event->return = str_replace("</body>", "{$js}</body>", $event->return);

Hey there, @theo! Just wanted to notify you that I'm moving this topic to the "Module/Plugin Development" subforum.

The "Modules/Plugins" forum area is where support boards for existing modules live, while all module development related topics belong to the "Module/Plugin Development" subforum. Thanks, and sorry for the disturbance ?
