How to Detect an Abandonment in JavaScript
- 1). Right-click the HTML page that you want to monitor by JavaScript. Click "Open With," then double-click the HTML editor you want to use to create the code.
- 2). Add the JavaScript "script" tags to the top of the code. Type the following code to create the JavaScript HTML tags:
<script type="text/javascript"> </script> - 3). Type the code that adds to the "abandoned" counter:
function abandoned() {
var abandon;
abandon = abandon + 1; - 4). Add the code to the "body" tag that calls the "abandoned" JavaScript function created in Step 3. Type the following code in the "body" HTML tag located directly underneath the closing "</head>" tag:
onUnload="javascript: abandoned()"
