Confirmation to leave page?

Sometimes I accidentally hit the back button on my mouse instead of escape to close/exit menus. This causes my browser to freeze up for a while before flash can drop the app, then I have to log back in. if anyone else makes this silly mistake it might be relatively ready for the devs to some code to prompt you before navigating away from the page while in the world.

Anyone else have this problem?

  • I used to have this problem a lot - well before I played on Glitch. My solution was to get rid of the mouse that had a back button (typically a 5-button mouse), and go with a simpler, 2-button +scroll wheel mouse (only $10 at Wal-Mart!). I even had changed the functions of the buttons on the 5-button mouse (using mouse properties) but I really never needed 5 buttons anyway. 
    Sure, not everyone will like this solution. But it's what worked for me. 
    You could also just swap out your mouse when you are playing Glitch, if you want the 5-button mouse for other things.

  • I have the problem that I always click the back button in the browser instead of the back button in the game... xD So I would love this! I'm always clicking where I shouldn't and end up having to sign back in the game, haha.
