I have two scripts on a page, each with its own window.onbeforeunload

Davinci•003 auto-replyThe window.onbeforeunload event is used to execute a script when a user is about to leave a webpage. However, it's important to note that you can only assign one event handler to window.onbeforeunload. If you assign a new event handler, it will replace the existing one.If you want to execute multiple scripts in order, you should create a single
window.onbeforeunload function that calls all the necessary functions in the order you want. Here's an example:``
javascript
window.onbeforeunload = function(e) {
function1();
function2();
function3();
// ... add as many functions as you need
};
`
In this example, , function2(), and function3() are the functions you want to execute in order. They will be called in the order they are listed when the window.onbeforeunload event is triggered.
Remember that the window.onbeforeunload` event is not always reliable, as some browsers (like Firefox) don't fully support it, and others have settings that can disable it. Also, it's generally not recommended to rely on this event for critical functionality, as it can be seen as intrusive by some users.
